Download WinRAR version 4.20
WinRAR is a
lightweight, flexible, and easy-to-use archiving utility that can unpack
most archive formats, as well as compress to both RAR and ZIP. Free to
try for 40 days ($29 for single license), WinRAR is a top dog in the
compression category.
WinRAR's interface is about as simple as it
gets. Start creating (or add to) an archive by dragging and dropping
your files into the interface or by browsing through the Folder Tree
side panel (when enabled). From there, the most common functions are
laid out in the form of colorful, mostly intuitive icons along the top,
which can all be customized by downloading themes from the company's Web
site. You can Add files to, Extract, Test, Delete, or even Repair
archives right from the main interface.
Drop-down menus house the
program's more advanced features, including self-extracting archives,
archive locking, benchmarking, and autodeletion of temp files.
With WinRAR,
both creating and unpacking archives is blazingly fast. And according to
WinRAR's developers, the most recent version of the program takes
advantage of multicore processors to achieve even faster compressions
rates, depending on your hardware profile. It is worth noting, however,
that these speed boosts do use up a significant chunk of RAM
(approximately 120 MB).
Compression ratios vary depending on file type,
but in general seem on par with or better than other archiving programs.
Overall, WinRAR is a winner because of its speed, simple
interface, flexibility with file formats, and powerful advanced
features. If you're looking for a one-stop archiving shop, look no
further.
