Solution USAFRet Nov 15, 2014 Grimmrock : Does 7zip do everything winrar does? Considering it's free unlike winrar. Interesting. I've never known WinRAR to be pay software. If so, 7z will do the trick.

lourson Distinguished Jul 9, 2007 122 0 18,710 Dec 10, 2014 #5 Tom's Hardware did a comparison a while ago between 7zip, WinRar and some others. You can find it here: http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/winrar-winzip-7-zip-magicrar,3436.html and 7zip was the clear winner in performance. As it's Free, there's no reason to look elsewhere!
