Pro RAR ZIP Decompression Tool for Mac v1.6.1 Activation Download

Decouple 2 for Mac is a comprehensive and modern professional decompression software that inherits the classic decompression features. It introduces cloud password service, intelligent preview, and advanced filtering among other innovative features, and optimizes for macOS system, providing a smooth and efficient file compression and decompression experience. As a highly-rated tool on the Mac platform, it supports over 30 common compression formats, including RAR, ZIP, 7Z, and TAR, covering all needs in daily work and study. According to the official technical documentation, its core engine is based on libarchive and p7zip for secondary development, ensuring format compatibility while also improving processing speed.

Before installation, it is recommended to confirm that your Mac runs macOS 10.13 or a higher version. Decouple 2 optimizes for Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) chips, allowing it to fully leverage hardware performance and reduce energy consumption when running on the latest Mac models. Based on user feedback from the “LoveMac” community, over 95% of users found its operation smoother than the built-in archiving utility after the first use. Below, we will guide you through the installation process and then explain how to master this software.

一、核心界面与工作区详解

启动Decouple 2后，您将看到简洁直观的主界面，主要分为以下几个区域：

1. 顶部工具栏：包含最常用的操作按钮，如“打开”、“压缩”、“解压”、“偏好设置”等。每个按钮都配有清晰的图标，鼠标悬停时会显示功能提示。
2. 左侧导航栏：通常显示“最近记录”、“密码本”、“云密码”等功能的快捷入口。你可以通过拖拽调整其宽度，以适应个人习惯。
3. 中央文件浏览区：这是核心工作区。当您打开一个压缩包时，这里会以列表或图标形式清晰展示包内的所有文件，支持直接预览文本、图片等内容。
4. 底部状态栏：显示当前压缩包的信息，如文件数量、压缩率、密码保护状态等。状态栏右侧还有一个进度条，实时反馈压缩或解压任务的完成情况。
5. 右键上下文菜单：在文件浏览区的任何文件或文件夹上右键单击，会弹出丰富的操作菜单，包括解压、预览、删除等。

整个界面设计遵循 macOS 的设计规范，支持暗色模式，并且可以通过拖拽方式轻松添加待处理文件。值得一提的是，Decouple 2 的界面响应速度非常快，即使在处理包含数千个文件的超大压缩包时，滚动和选择操作也不会出现卡顿。根据苹果开发者文档中的建议，这种基于 NSCollectionView 的优化实现，确保了在高分辨率 Retina 屏幕下的视觉一致性。

二、完整操作流程：从打开到导出

以下是以一个加密的RAR压缩包为例，完成解压并重新压缩成ZIP格式的完整流程。这套流程经过“LoveMac”编辑团队的实际测试，耗时约 3 分钟即可完成。

1. 打开或导入压缩包

方法一：拖拽导入
直接将 Finder 中的压缩包文件拖拽到Decouple 2应用窗口的中央区域。这是最快捷的方式，尤其适合从桌面或下载文件夹中直接操作。

方法二：菜单打开
点击顶部菜单栏的 “文件” -> “打开”，或使用快捷键 Command + O，在对话框中选择目标压缩包。

方法三：设置为默认打开方式
在 Finder 中右键点击压缩包，选择“显示简介”，在“打开方式”中设置为“Decouple 2”，之后双击即可用Decouple 2打开。这一设置可以批量应用于所有同类型文件，省去重复选择的麻烦。

2. 处理加密压缩包（如需密码）

1. 打开加密压缩包后，软件会自动弹出密码输入框。
2. 输入密码。如果密码已保存在“密码本”中，软件通常会尝试自动填充。密码本功能支持 Touch ID 验证，提升了安全性。
3. 勾选“记住密码”可将此密码存入本地密码本。这一操作会触发 macOS 的钥匙串访问请求，请点击“允许”以完成保存。
4. 点击“确定”即可浏览压缩包内容。如果密码错误，软件会给出明确的提示，并允许你重新输入。

3. 预览与部分解压

• 预览文件：在中央浏览区，直接双击文本、图片或PDF文件，即可在软件内置预览器中快速查看，无需完全解压。预览器支持缩放、旋转和翻页操作，体验接近系统自带的“预览”应用。
• 部分解压：
  1. 在浏览区，按住 Command 键并点击，可选择多个不连续的文件/文件夹。
  2. 右键点击选中项，选择 “解压选中项”。
  3. 在弹窗的窗口中选择解压目标路径（如桌面、文档等），点击“解压”。你也可以直接在路径栏输入自定义目录，例如 ~/Downloads/Project。

4. 完全解压压缩包

在工具栏点击 “解压全部” 按钮，或使用快捷键 Command + E。选择解压目录后，软件将开始解压所有文件。在解压过程中，底部状态栏会显示实时进度，并估算剩余时间。对于大型文件，建议选择 SSD 固态硬盘作为目标路径，以提升写入速度。

5. 创建新的压缩包

1. 在Decouple 2主界面，点击工具栏的 “压缩” 按钮，或使用快捷键 Command + N。
2. 在弹窗的新窗口，将需要压缩的文件/文件夹从Finder拖入，或点击“添加”按钮导入。支持同时拖入多个来源的文件，它们会被合并到同一个压缩包中。
3. 在右侧设置压缩选项：
   • 格式：选择 ZIP、7Z等目标格式。ZIP格式兼容性最好，7Z格式压缩率更高。

6. Export and Manage Records

All decompression and compression records are automatically saved in the “Recent Records”. You can:

• Search History：Enter the “Recent Records” via the left navigation bar and search by time or name. The search box supports fuzzy matching, such as entering “project” to find all records containing that keyword.
• Clear Records：In the “Recent Records” interface, right-click a single record to delete, or use the “History” menu in the menu bar for batch cleanup. The cleanup operation is irreversible, and it is recommended to back up important compression task records regularly.

Three, Advanced Usage Tips

1. Efficiently Utilize “Cloud Password Service”

For users needing multi-device synchronization of passwords, you can:

• Click the “Cloud Password” option in the left navigation bar to log in to your account. The first login requires registration, a simple process involving only an email and password.
• When encountering a new password, select “Save to Cloud Password” in the input box to achieve cross-device synchronization. The synchronization process uses end-to-end encryption to ensure the security of passwords during transmission and storage.
• In another Mac, when decompressing the same file, the password will automatically fill in. This feature is particularly suitable for collaborative scenarios, such as a design team sharing an encrypted design file archive.

2. Use “Filters” for Precise Operations

When compressing or decompressing a large number of files, using filters can exclude specific files:

1. Find the “Filters” option in the compression settings window or preferences.
2. Add rules, such as excluding all .DS_Store files or *.log log files. These files are common in the Mac system but are usually not needed in the compressed archive.
3. Supports wildcard and regular expressions, enabling complex filtering. For example, temp_* can exclude all files starting with “temp_”. For users familiar with regular expressions, ^__MACOSX can be used to filter out macOS-generated resource files.

3. Drag-and-Extract and Quick Compression

• Drag-and-Extract：After opening a compressed file in Decompress 2, drag the required files directly from the browsing area to any location in Finder. This allows for quick partial extraction. This operation is more intuitive than the traditional right-click menu extraction, especially suitable for scenarios where files need to be dispersed into different folders.
• Quick Compression：In Finder, select files, right-click, and choose “Use Decompress 2 to Compress” from the “Services” or “Quick Actions” menu (if configured). This bypasses the main interface and directly enters the compression settings. The Finder extension for Decompress 2 can be enabled in the System Preferences under the “Extensions” section to activate this feature.
