WinRAR - opening tar files

Post by Luke »

Is there an open-source/free program that will extract rar files (a decent one)? I am using winRAR right now but it keeps bugging me to buy it.

Straight from RAR's (Roshal's) site: unrar. Free and open-source, just like you wanted.

I'd like to strongly recommend 7zip.
