.RAR files?

Drizzid · 08-23-2006, 10:41 PM

Does anyone know of a free program that can open .RAR files? I've downloaded a torrent and it is in RAR format but everything I seem to find is for purchase. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

You can use the trial of WinRar.

7-Zip

Winrar works great. After the end of the trial it turns into nagware though.

Yes, WinRAR. But I have a bug that somehow gives me infinite trail.

Ooh I like those kinds of bugs

7-Zip is freeware and open source. You can't get much better than that.

BTW, WinRAR has some issues in extracting numerous files the click and drag way.

Winrar fan myself, but maybe I should give 7-zip a try.

I find the easiest way to do it is to use unrar e filename.rar. But I am a Linux user so I like the command line...

7-Zip is nice but I still like WinRAR more. Drizzid if you are interested in the full version of WinRAR for free... let me know.
