Payload Extractor Update: Version 1.2

Posted on October 5, 2012 by hac

This update is really just a bunch of behind the scenes stuff, but the overall result is, you will be able to open and extract certain things that weren’t appearing before, following the app’s philosophy that you should be able to see and extract everything in a PKG file, without knowing what’s happening behind the scenes.

Some PKGs are recursive, meaning meaning when decompressed they contain even more PKGs. Where before, Payload Extractor would open a PKG containing more PKGs and simply open the first one, now it will open all of them. It also has the ability now to open these inner child packages, in case you happen to come across one. Download here.

I’d also like to mention that this update was made because a user asked, so if you are missing something in one of our applications, drop us a line!

I use this tool along with Suspicious Package, a PKG plug-in for QuickLook, to see when packages are installing more than I want them too, and skipping the parts I don’t need.
