To work No, what I said is about making self-extracting archives, not de-archiving. With Compactor 1.21, I have no problem to make self-extracting archive and to de-archive .sea with GateKeeper. What I guess is that for Compactor, real file is made when to "Close".But For StuffIt Classic, "New Archive" creates real file at that time. So to attach "Self-Unstuffing" code is really to attach a code resource to the file like virus does. GateKeeper's message is: GateKeeper has vetoed an attempt by StuffIt Classic to violate "Res(Other)" privileges agains Archive.sit. [ AddResource(DODE, 2) ] So I checked "Other - Res" in GateKeeper's list for StuffIt Classic. But still GateKeeper refused to make self-unstuffing archive. So I checked all check-boxes, but ...
