No more Stuffit Expander?

I had Stuffit Expander in OS 10.3, but now that I have upgraded to 10.4, I can't unstuff files and it says there is no Stuffit Expander.
Has Stuffit Expander been removed in 10.4 or am I missing something?
I don't want to have to register with them and have them send me a ton of junk mail.

eMac 1.25GHz, 512MB RAM, Mac OS X (10.4)

Install it again. (Or go with the superior app, The Unarchiver. It unarchives pretty much anything you want it to.)

Correct, it was no longer supplied with OS X 10.4 as it includes an inbuilt decompressing utility. The utility doesn't handle .sit/.sitx files though.

The above posts should help you out in that respect 🙂

You can also download the free Stuffit Expander from the developer's site here.
