I’m repeating myself here but I hate it when people say “Just use X. It’s better.” and then omit explaining why it’s better. Give us a reason to consider changing or say nothing at all
Fair enough. 7z offers basically the same functionality as winRar including windows shell extensions (right click -> extract here, etc). It has slightly better compression ratios than WinRAR, and it’s open source. It doesn’t nag you to register.
It also supports an insane number of file formats. It will extract files from every pretty much every obscure archive you can think of (.ace, .cab) and all kinds of file types you wouldn’t expect like self-extracting executables, isos, .msi installers, vmdks, and more.
Actually, if you are using 7zip on windows 11, consider giving nanazip a try. It is 7zip but it adds the shortcuts to the new(and debatably worse) right click context menu on windows 11.
And don’t quote me on this but I remember having seen somewhere that the devs of 7zip says they won’t update 7zip to use the new context menu.
Might want to revise your joke then because unarch is a paid compression tool so adding pro to it doesn’t change much if that’s what you were going for.
Just use 7zip. It’s so much better.

Sounds cool. I’m still just using the unzipper that’s built in windows explorer. I don’t see why it’s inadequate.

Or just bring back the windows 10 context menu
Because it’s better lol
