Review

WinRAR is a very powerful file archiver & data compression utility ever developed. It is available as a shareware for almost every operating sytem that is available whether it be Windows, Free BSD, Mac or Linux. As the name suggest it natively creates compressed RAR files which is a much better compression format as compared to the popular ZIP format. Infact it also support unpacking of ARJ, LZH, TAR, GZ, ACE, UUE, BZ2, JAR, ISO, EXE, 7z and Z archives. Only RAR & ZIP are fully supported. In this version decompression support for WinZip AES encrypted ZIP archives is added & now there is improved Unicode support for RAR and ZIP archive names. New command line switches are also included, now you can use command prompt to handle winRAR, you can also batch process your archive files. New "Options" page of archiving dialog contains the group of settings modifying the behavior of "Delete files after archiving" option from "General" page, & last but not the least it displays the total progress bar when unpacking a multivolume RAR archive if all volumes are present in the same folder.
Advantages
  • Easy to use.
  • RAR format is very well supported.
  • Multi-split volume can be created easily.
Disadvantages
  • None in Particular.
