BetterZip 4.0.1 Released
Robert, 2017-08-02
BetterZip 4 was a great new version and quite trouble-free. Thanks for all the nice feedback! However, no new major version of any software is perfect and BetterZip 4 is no exception. So here is the first update.
And here are the bugs I fixed:
- Fixed a possible crash when opening an archive through the Favorites sidebar and extracting it with a preset that moves the archive after the extraction.
- Fixed a possible crash when extracting or compressing an archive through the queue with the “show save panel” option set in the used preset.
- In some places in the user interface BetterZip 3 was referenced instead of BetterZip 4.
- “Reveal Service Folder” in Preferences > Presets didn’t work correctly.
- Extracting tar archives with multiple root items with the queue didn’t create an extra folder when not set to “Always”.
- BetterZip services and the BetterZip button in Finder didn’t automatically show the queue window when compressing or extracting files.
- “Opening an archive from Finder immediately extracts it” affected the compression, not only the extraction when dropping files on dock icon.
- The Dropzone action could crash Dropzone after completion.
- Files were sorted in reverse order when applying a filter in the favorites sidebar.
- Extracting the BetterZip download package with macOS 10.10 built-in Archive Utility or Safari could lead to BetterZip being “damaged”. (Actually, the two included Automator actions were signed in a way that 10.10 didn’t like … don’t ask me. Sigh.)
- When adding multiple parts of a multi-volume archive to the queue through the Finder button, they would all be queued instead of the first part only.
This was not a bug, but a user request that I was happy to include: When renaming a file or folder in an archive, BetterZip now only selects the name without the file extension, just like Finder.
