      Hi All

      I am wondering if any others here have upgraded to MAcOS Catalina. I have used both Zipeg and UnRarX in the past to open files and now they are no longer supported. Checking to see if any of you use similar apps and can recommend.

      Thanks in Advance.

          uTorrent and likely these other apps too are all 32bit applications, for which macOS Catalina removed support.

          To put in simply, Mac apps (but really, virtually all modern computer applications) usually come in 2 "flavours": 32bit or the more modern 64bit. The difference is pretty technical, but in practice this means the at the OS level, 32bit Mac apps are not at all compatible with Catalina - they simply will not run.

          Seeing how macOS is closed course, the problem will likely not be solvable by users anytime soon…

          Bet advice I can give: for torrents, switch to Transmission, and for Zip/Rar extraction use The Unarchiver 😕
