WinRAR puts you ahead of the crowd when it comes to compression. By consistently creating smaller archives, WinRAR is often faster than the competition. This will save you disk space, transmission costs AND valuable working time as well.
WinRAR supports all popular compression formats (RAR, ZIP, CAB, ARJ, LZH, TAR, GZip, UUE, ISO, BZIP2, Z and 7-Zip).
WinRAR is ideal for multimedia files. WinRAR automatically recognizes and selects the best compression method. The special compression algorithm compresses multimedia files, executables and object libraries particularly well.
WinRAR allows you to split archives into separate volumes easily, making it possible to save them on several disks.
WinRAR is also ideal if you are sending data through the web. Its AES 256-bit encryption and its authenticated signature technology will give you the peace of mind you have been looking for.
BASIC FEATURES
WinRAR is a powerful archive manager that allows users to create, manage, and control archive files. It supports a wide range of compression formats, including RAR and ZIP, and can unpack numerous formats such as ARJ, BZIP2, CAB, GZ, ISO, JAR, LHA, TAR, UUE, XZ, Z, ZIPX, ZST, 7z, and 001 (split) archives. WinRAR offers features like strong AES-256-bit encryption, the ability to create self-extracting and multivolume archives, and tools for repairing damaged archives. It also supports NTFS file system features such as hard and symbolic links, and can handle file paths up to 65,535 characters. Additionally, WinRAR provides options for file deduplication and advanced backup capabilities, including time-stamped files and previous file version retention.
WHAT'S NEW
In version 7.11, WinRAR introduces several enhancements and fixes. Notably, it adds a "Close" item to the "When done" list on the "Advanced" page of the archiving dialog, allowing the program to close automatically after completing an operation. The "When done" list is also added to the "Options" page of the extraction dialog, offering actions like turning off the computer or closing WinRAR after extraction. The new -ep4 switch enables exclusion of a specified path prefix when archiving or extracting, and the -mes switch allows skipping of encrypted files during extraction or testing. Additionally, WinRAR now supports unpacking .zst and .zipx archives utilizing the Zstandard algorithm. The program also includes improvements to the Windows 11 context menu integration and enhances the efficiency of the "Repair" command for shuffled data blocks in RAR5 archives.

WinRAR 7.11 requires Windows 7 x64 or later operating systems. It is no longer compatible with Windows Vista or 32-bit Windows versions.
