How do I deal with Rar. downloads. in plain english please?

Question

I did download WinRar (free) but have little idea how to use it LOL. Any help would be appreciated thx.

Answer 1

I'm guessing you're dealing with split .rar files (.rar01, .rar02, etc) that need to be recombined.  Open the .rar file (no 01, 02, etc) and it oughta stick them all back together for you.  Beware, this process takes a long time for big files.

Answer 2

Ok after its installed it will take the file extensions...  which means it will open the rar files with win rar..

After you open a rar file use winrar to extract the files (the extract button on the top)  pick a directory and choose ok...

good luck

Answer 3

When you download something and it turns out to be a rar, right click and select extract to...

Answer 4

install it, of course, and right click the rar file and click extract to.
