Cool, Useful, Fun Freebie

arrow Extract all kinds of compressed files

File systems help make sense of large amounts of information. Entire photo collections fit in a single folder. Huge programs launch from a single shortcut. It's all deceptively simple. But it falls apart when you e-mail, download or transfer that data.
Moving lots of information takes time. It can sometimes take too long to bother. The process can be sped up, if you compress those files. And that's exactly what people do. You've seen extensions like .zip, .rar, .7z, .kgb and more. Even some .exe files are actually archived content.
Unfortunately, unpacking these archived files isn't always easy. There are dozens of archiving programs. Many archived files can only be unpacked with their respective program. But it isn't very convenient to have all of them on your computer. And some of these programs cost money.
This is a frustrating problem. But Universal Extractor is the solution. It can extract files from more than 50 different archived formats. You'll never be left with a locked file or folder. Now, it only decompresses files. It won't compress them. For that you'll need another program.
Cost: Free
Systems: Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7
