Install
Download CleanZip-2.6.35.pkg below. It installs CleanZip in /Applications and the Finder service in /Library/Services.
This public build is ad-hoc signed and is not Apple-notarized because the repository does not currently contain Developer ID and notarization credentials. On first install, macOS may say that Apple cannot verify the package:
- Try to open the downloaded PKG once, then dismiss the warning.
- Open System Settings → Privacy & Security.
- Scroll to the Security section and click Open Anyway for CleanZip.
- Authenticate and confirm Open.
On newer macOS versions, Finder's right-click Open may show the same warning for a PKG; use Privacy & Security → Open Anyway instead.
The ZIP asset is provided for manual installation. See SHA256SUMS.txt for download verification.
