What is WinRAR?

WinRAR is a lightweight and feature-rich file archiver. It supports ZIP and RAR compression formats and additional 14 archive formats. Archives created with WinRAR are self-extracting and can be used for storing backup copies. WinRAR can be used to create split-archives, compress email attachments, or as a file repair tool.

Associations of WinRAR with the file extensions

WinRAR opens the files:

The primary purpose of our website is to provide the user with a list of software programs that support a particular file extension, as well as that help to convert them to another format. WinRAR supports 251 different file extensions, that's why it was found in our database. The following tables provide information about the association of WinRAR with file extensions. If the WinRAR program can be used to convert the file format to another one, such information will also be provided.

What can I use this information for?

This information is especially useful when looking for a way to open a specific file. If you already have WinRAR installed on your computer, you can check which file extensions it supports and look for the data you need in this specific format (or to what format you should convert the data so that you can open them in the WinRAR).

I do not have a WinRAR yet. Where should I get it?

By far the most safe way is to download WinRAR directly from the developers's website. If you are going to download the WinRAR from a website that offers a database of downloadable software, you have to reckon with the fact that when you install it on your computer, you will also install the unwanted extras. Please, pay special attention to this.

I cannot see the file extensions. What should I do?

File extensions are not normally displayed to users. To change this, go to Control Panel, select Appearance and Personalization and Folder Options. Next, select the View and find the option "Hide extensions for known file types". The option should be deselected (cleared) and confirmed with OK.

Select the first letter of the file extension you are looking for
