7zip exists and is free.
7zip will unpack rar files? I've used it for years and never knew.
It'll unpack everything
https://www.7-zip.org/
Will it unpack my bags from the weekend? Cos it's Friday now and I still can't be bothered
If you give it access to robot arms it will.
What about the emotional baggage I lug around on a daily basis?
Archive that shit and never look at it again
You may have problems unpacking RAR of latest format versions with 7zip. It's been some time since I encountered that.
Yea. It just can’t pack files into RaR.
I can't find any reason why someone would still use rar in 2023. When I see anyone using it, it means to me they're as technologically literate as my grandpa.
So pretty literate compared to most older people.
