Windows XP contains basic archive management, but try working with multiple ZIP files and you'll quickly find your system gets overloaded and 'unarchived' files appear everywhere, in locations you didn't expect.

ExtractNow is a basic but effective utility that performs one key task: it enables you to quickly extract multiple archived files. It doesn't do much more than this, but what it does do, it performs effectively.

Simply selected the archived files you want to extract, then ExtractNow will take those archives and will systematically extract them to the desired location, in one process.

You can drag and drop archived files directly to ExtractNow or use Windows Explorer, but right-clicking on the archived file(s) to start the process. ExtractNow will support ZIP, RAR and other popular archive formats.

Latest 4.38 contains a few minor changes and improvements.
