About:
qlZipInfo is a QuickLook generator plugin that provides detailed previews of ZIP archive contents without extracting them. It displays file listings, sizes, timestamps, and compression ratios directly in Finder's QuickLook view. This tool streamlines file inspection workflows for users who frequently work with compressed archives.
Key Features:
  • Displays comprehensive ZIP file contents in QuickLook
  • Shows file sizes, dates, and compression statistics
  • No extraction required to view archive contents
  • Integrates natively with macOS Finder
Use Cases:
  • Quickly verifying ZIP archive contents before extraction
  • Checking file metadata in compressed packages
  • Validating backup archives without unpacking
Alternatives:
  • BetterZip – Full-featured archive manager with preview capabilities, but requires separate app instead of QuickLook integration
  • macOS built-in archive utility – Provides basic extraction but no detailed content preview without full extraction
