#Keka vs betterzip for free#

This is problematic to me as the vast majority of my files are compressed with Torrent7z as it support re-compress and conversion from. I don't have this error when testing archives compressed with Torrent Zip 0.9, Winrar 5.21, LZH, LHA, GZ, BZ2, TGZ, LZMA, APK, ARJ, JAR, ISO, EXE or 7-zip 15.12 itself in either. I tested Torrent7z version 9.0, 9.1 and 9.2. If you have any questions or problems with Keka please contact Keka's developer rather than the developer of 7-zip, who only works on the Windows version.ħ-zip version 15.12 give the error 'There are some data after the end of the payload data' when testing archives compressed with Torrent7z. Since it supports a wide variety of archive formats and works on all Mac OS X versions from 10.4 thru the current 10.11, and has a convenient user interface instead of being command-line, and is also free GNU GPL open source software based on 7-zip's p7zip port, it is clearly the best choice for someone who wants something similar to 7-zip's graphical user interface and OS integration, but on Mac OS X instead of Windows. Its interface is not as full-featured as the 7-zip File Manager for Windows but it is good enough for most purposes and integrates very well with Mac OS X. Then you are able to open 7z archives, and then you can download the beta version for newer features. I suggest to first install the stable version.

#Keka vs betterzip for free#

Get it for free at if you have Mac OS X of any version from 10.4 Tiger thru 10.11 El Capitan, it works on all of those versions, I use it on 10.11 El Capitan. I have found that Keka gets the job done and is a good free open-source archiver/unarchiver for Mac OS X that is full-featured. You can also install the command-line port of 7-zip to non-Windows operating systems, p7zip, which is a bit more up to date but lacks the GUI conveniences. There is an open-source port of 7-zip to Mac OS X called Keka with a graphical user interface.
