• RAR file unpacking for win11

    From ogg@21:2/147 to All on Sat Jan 28 17:26:07 2023
    Hey All,

    I'm trying to figure out what the unpack command for RAR files is. I'm using 7z and haven't been able to get anything to work. Can someone share what they're using?

    Thanks!

    I use unrar to work with rar files. 7z can work too if it is build with rar support and the libraries are available but unrar is easy to install (even on linux, build from source).

    You can grab it from the rarlab.com website. The unrar bit is free.
