So, let's chat about Rapidmg. This handy tool makes dealing with DMG files a whole lot easier. DMG files are basically like little packages that hold software for Mac. They usually need to be mounted as disk images to get to the goodies inside, but that can be a bit of a hassle.
Here's where Rapidmg steps in! Instead of going through the usual process of mounting those disk images, this app just extracts everything right away. If it spots an app in there, it can even toss it straight into your Applications folder without you having to lift a finger. How cool is that?
This tool is powered by the open-source 7-Zip extractor. If you've ever tried checking out a DMG file on Windows, you'll know it's super quick! You can skip all that mounting and unmounting nonsense.
Once Rapidmg has done its magic and extracted the contents, it looks for apps and moves them into your Applications folder automatically. Usually, you'd have to drag them in there yourself after mounting the DMG file, which takes way more time.
If there's a license agreement hidden in the disk image that needs your approval, Rapidmg will let you know about it. But let’s be real—most people don’t bother reading those!
The best way to use this tool is by making it your go-to app for opening DMG files. Once set up, just double-click any disk image and watch as the app inside gets extracted and thrown into your Applications. The original DMG? You can toss it in the Trash or delete it right away!
If no apps show up when you extract a DMG file, don't worry! It can still mount or extract like normal. Sometimes with certain DMGs—like when I tried with Google Chrome Dev, I only got a .hfs image instead of what I expected. In those cases, you'll just mount the DMG and access its contents old-school style.
If you only need to deal with DMG files once in a while, then sure, maybe Rapidmg isn’t for you. But if you're like me and open tons of them daily? It’s super easy to use and totally customizable—and guess what? It's really budget-friendly too!
