ExtractNow could use a bit of sprucing up. The dead-simple and cheetah-quick installation brings you to an expanse of white that sits on top of four buttons. That's it. It's not an interface that sells the feature set, but it's the feature set that users will be most interested in.
The program should appeal to users who handle a high volume of archives, because all it does is extract archive contents. The four buttons--Settings, History, Clear, and Extract--lay out the basics. Click Settings and a window pops up to entice you with options. From the boilerplate specials like Always on Top or Start with Windows to more detailed customizations such as delineating a default extraction directory, setting file extensions to ignore, and adjusting post-extraction behavior, ExtractNow gives users as much flexibility as possible when it comes to batch archive extractions. You can, for instance, set it to delete archives after their files have been extracted.
It is not an archiver, though, and won't be able to replace your favorite archiver. But if you're more about receiving than giving when it comes to ZIPs, RARs, and TARs, ExtractNow can save you a massive amount of time.
Publisher's Description

ExtractNow allows you to extract more than one archived file at a time, with one click of a button. It makes extracting files quicker and easier. ExtractNow supports ZIP, RAR, ACE, IMG, IMA, IMZ, ISO, and BIN, and archives.

"ExtractNow is a life saver"
Version: ExtractNow 3.35
Pros
I am quite computer illiterate, and this software was easy to use, easy to find, and easy to work. The creator should be proud.
Cons
none

"The simplicityof this is what makes it so good"
Version: ExtractNow 3.35
Pros
I'm not a super-experienced user, but I extract a lot of files from P2P use, and this is so convenient I use it all the time. Obviously, if you are messing around with ISO's and RAR files you need a bigger program to manipulate them, but for simple extraction you can't beat this. I would download version 4 from the website

"Superb file extraction utility..."
Version: ExtractNow 3.35
Pros
This free, powerful extractor can extract files from over a dozen different archive formats, including ZIP, RAR, ISO, BIN, ACE, and JAR. In addition, its support for drag-and-drop batch file conversion saves time and effort, something the Windows extractor would rather waste. Finally, I have found it to get the job done faster than most of the other free alternatives, making this my favorites and primary extraction utility.
Cons
The only downside is that it cannot create compressed archives, only extract the contents from them.
