It has been an NPC earmark since 2008.

7z has no recovery record

alternative?
7zip looks ancient

7zip is just better
i used winrar back then in 2016 but i got tired of constant ads and bs... just total retardation.

Still using winrar with the key I generated using a keygen 12 years ago. Get fucked OP.

>Install 7zip
>Can't open compressed files of any type anymore
Not sure what I did but WinRAR works as soon as install it.

maybe its about functionality, not how visually appealing the UI is? I know a lot of shitty ass software that looks good but doesnt work good. Fuck, give me command line utils any day.

par2

I switched to 7zip. I don't think WinRAR is truly that much shittier? 7z can achieve better compression but WinRAR can still decompress it so it's no big deal if you choose to use one or the other. Also when has recovery ever been useful in WinRAR? I used it to repair some fucked up zip files I got before but I also figured out I could do it manually with a hex editor. The site I got them from was adding some html at the start of them.

It just works, ok.
Also, it has soul.

I've been told all over that 7-zip is superior to Winrar. At first I was skeptical. Winrar is so much better, right? Wrong. 7-zip is like ray of sunshine in these dark times. It doesn't change every file you download to a book icon and it doesn't pressure you to pay for anything. You just right click something you want extract, and it goes through a less cluttered process like Winrar's. It's so good! The file isn't changed to a Winrar-like file and it has better features than Winrar. I feel a little bad for being so ignorant over these years, but I've finally found the good side.

use -J flag on tar

7zip works on every OS down to Windows 2000. Clearly the creator has some sort of basedness going on if he cares about old Windows version compatibility this much.

WinRAR is God Tier.

Winrar plebs are disgusting.
Imagine getting filtered by 7zip.

definitely vim

If it wasn't propietary and Windows only i'd trust it because honestly the RAR5 features look ok. The unrar utility doesn't always work on all rar files and i assume is because it uses those features.

You need to manually set file associations in 7-Zip settings.

There is nothing better than WinRAR
7zip lacks a lot of functions

Hands down skype.
Holly shit, it's slow, it's buggy, and uses more resources than your entire operating system and the majority of the programs you are running.
Ever skype call starts with "can you hear me? hello? can you hear me? I can't hear you". AND THERE ARE FUCKIGN COMPANIES THAT STILL USE IT AS THEIR PRIMARY MAIN OF COMMUNICATION.
