So, how on earth do I associate sit files with The Unarchiver?Īt the risk of further derailing this thread. I hate the way Aladdin/Allume try to force Stuffit onto you, The Unarchiver is quicker to load, quicker to extract and manages to make something of the really old sit files I've recovered and are partially damaged, or that Stuffit refuses to handle at least! (It's only sitx files The Unarchiver won't handle, but nobody much ever used those anyway) but upon restarting sit files seem to be associated with MS word! :S hqx files open with The Unarchiver still, but i mean, wtf? app, sit archives started opening with The Unarchiver! Great, i thought. I've gone into Expander and turned off everything I can find which implies opening archives, but it doesn't work.Īnd here's the weirdest thing, I made a zip of Stuffit expander.app using the finder "make archive" command, and deleted the.
#STUFFIT EXPANDER NOT A VALID ARCHIVE ARCHIVE#
I found a Stuffit archive extractor which isn't made by Aladdin/Allume called "The Unarchiver" (google it) and I would *really* like to replace Stuffit Expander with it, but the damn thing won't let me! If I select an archive, get info, select "The Unarchiver" as the associated program for sit file opening, it will then open with it if I double click, but if I click "change all" it just reverts back to Stuffit.
