What rar is and how to use it

RAR files are actually archival files and they use a similar method like ZIP files. They files are compressed to occupy less space. The program is very popular and has lots of benefits. It is compatible with many systems and is even more popular than ZIP files. RAR files is awesome when sending data on the internet. Websites will put limits about the data you can upload at one time but
with WinRAR you can compress them and send more files. RAR data and files are of all types, video, audio, lots of extensions can be compressed. This is the idea actually, to be able to manipulate data
very easy and in a short time. The program will give you the chance to compress similar files in one folder, in other words you are free to organize things just as you like. If you were not sure about winRar,

You also have to make the difference among RAR, RAR 2 and 3. They are similar but not the same. RAR 3 is very new and modern, it works very well with newest versions of Windows. Websites will show you for what type of Windows each RAR is recommended. The first one works for older
versions than Windows 98, and the last one is for the newest version. RAR 2 works for Windows Professional and for Vista too. The difference comes when is about the amount of files compressed too, the newest version is able to compress up to 4 GB of data.

7zip is free and portable as well. It is not better than WinRAR but at least it does the job pretty good. Again, most importantly it is free!
