AetherZip 0.1.0-beta.1

Build 2026101213 · · Apple silicon · macOS 26+

First public beta: native compression, encryption, extraction and Finder actions.

First-beta features

  • Create ZIP, 7z and TAR archives; extract RAR/RAR5, Zstandard and other supported formats.
  • AES encryption, hidden filenames and split archives in 7z, with Mac metadata filtered by default.
  • Resource budgets limit parallel work; normal cancellation and exit wait for temporary-file cleanup.

Current limits

  • macOS 26+ and Apple silicon only, with a Chinese interface. RAR is read-only and ZIP creation requires ASCII passwords.
  • Automatic updates, archive editing, password changes and damage repair are not included. Physical 8 GiB Mac acceptance remains pending; Windows 7-Zip encrypted round trips, native ZIP extraction and four Linux GNU tar formats passed both ways.
