HOW TO USE STUFFIT EXPANDER
Aladdin Expander is the easiest-to-use file decompressor for Windows with several choices to match how you work.  You can double-click on the file you wish to expand, or drag it on top of the Expander desktop shortcut. If you are more comfortable using context menus then right-click on the archive and choose "Expand" from the menu options.  There is no application to launch or interface to learn. It just works, and it's FREE.

If you prefer to work from an application, then you can either double-click on the desktop shortcut, or launch it from the Programs menu from the "Start" menu.

WHAT'S NEW IN STUFFIT EXPANDER 6.0
StuffIt Expander now supports 2 additional archive formats: Lha and bzip. Another new feature of Expander is iSupport, our single click connection to many Aladdin services including product registration, updates, and technical support. Just double click the desktop shortcut and click on iSupport from the menu bar. We have modified the Options property pages to give you more control over file associations and other features. StuffIt Expander also has beefed up support for 2-byte languages and Unicode.

STUFFIT(tm) 5.5 FOR WINDOWS
Use StuffIt's powerful, easy-to-use, data compression for things like sending smaller email attachments, creating sel-extracting archives, posting files to the Internet, or simply to free up space on your hard disk drive.  StuffIt archives offer greater compression than the Zip format.  StuffIt for Windows gives you the choice to create files in Zip, StuffIt, Tar, Gzip, and other archive formats. StuffIt lets you choose between drag-and-drop compression to the desktop shortcut, right-mouse context menus for one-step compression, and StuffIt Browser which offers a full Explorer interface that integrates compression into a full suite of data management options.

KNOWN ISSUES
When an archive or encoded file resides on a network and the root folder name of the network contains spaces, StuffIt Expander will display an error indicating that the archive or encoded file doesn't exist.  This will only occur if the archive or encoded file is dropped on the application icon (not into the running application view area) or the archive or encoded file document icon is double-clicked. If you experience this error, try dropping the file onto the running application or open the file using the standard open dialog (File menu - Expand...).
