WinRAR

Many people wonder what programs like winRAR, 7zip, and winZIP. Although these programs are different, they all have the same objective. They are compression programs. This means they combine files into archives so that they can easily be shared and distributed. Compressing files also saves space. Each program is different also. There are certain aspects of WinRAR that WinZIP does not have. WinRAR folders are saved as .rar files. WinZIP folders are saved as .zip files. Another difference between these major archiving programs is the fact that WinRAR has the ability to compress files more compact than winZIP. However WinZIP comes installed with any windows computer. Winrar, on the other hand, must be downloaded. Now you may wonder which of these programs is better. In my opinion WinRAR is better, more efficent, and more productive. WinRAR has the ability to also handle zip files, thus it has all the features winZIP has and more. WinRAR is for those who want more than winZIP has to offer.
