This tool is built on Automator and can remove the .txt extension from downloaded RAR files for free.
As a frequent user of various websites, I have noticed many instances where the MIME-type settings for .rar files are not compatible. This results in the files being downloaded as .rar.txt, which can be frustrating for users. Despite the different file extension, the files still function as .rar files. However, to access them properly, you must first remove the .txt extension using your default compression program.
Luckily, I came across the TXT RAR Stripper application, which is included in the pack. This helpful tool prompts you to select the folder containing the problematic files and allows you to create a workflow that can be directed to your downloads folder and saved as an application. Additionally, there is a plug-in that can be saved to your Finder for easy access.
It's important to note that these files are intended for a very specific purpose, so it's possible that not many people will find them useful. This is an alpha version for testing purposes, but the only risk to your files is if they have the extension ".rar.txt". Overall, the TXT RAR Stripper application is a useful tool for anyone who frequently encounters this issue when attempting to access .rar files.
