Universal Extractor 1.6 Final

Universal Extractor 1.6 Final

Universal Extractor is a program to do exactly what it says: extract files from any type of archive, whether it’s a simple zip file, an installation, or even a Windows Installer (. Msi). It is always a work in progress, but so far it has proved very useful and I think that others can also benefit.

I want to stress that Universal Extractor is not intended to be a general purpose archiving software. It will never replace WinRAR, 7-Zip, etc. What it will do is allow you to extract files from virtually any type of archive, regardless of the source, compression method, etc.
The motivation behind this project was that I wanted easy, convenient way to extract files from installation packages, such as Inno Setup or Windows Installer packages, without pulling a command line every time. In the process I am a little carried away and ended up throwing in support for all types of archive format I possibly could find.

Version 1.6 improves on the core functionality of UniExtract, including:
* Full Vista
* C. The preferences (See changelog for more details)
* New GUI preferences
* Code of warnings

He also, of course, includes support for additional formats, and the latest versions binary support such as 7-Zip.
