You could try using /Applications/Keka.app/Contents/MacOS/Keka --cli 7zz x "/Volumes/CRUCIAL_4TB/_LOUSIOS_BACKUP/nk-Jun03.tar" -o"/Volumes/CRUCIAL_4TB/_LOUSIOS_BACKUP/nk-Jun03-7zz" /Applications/Keka.app/Contents/MacOS/Keka --cli unar "/Volumes/CRUCIAL_4TB/_LOUSIOS_BACKUP/nk-Jun03.tar" -o "/Volumes/CRUCIAL_4TB/_LOUSIOS_BACKUP/nk-Jun03-unar" You may need to give some file access to Keka, if the Terminal command asks for it: https://github.com/aonez/Keka/wiki/Enable-External-Volumes-File-Access |
