best program for unzipping files

**Tails** · 09-10-2008, 07:20 PM

I need one ASAP that is free.

**oasis** · 09-10-2008, 08:03 PM

winrar by far just google.

it charges after a period of time

but you could search thepiratebay.org for a full version but I know you dont download

so get winrar and use its trial

**Tails** · 09-10-2008, 08:29 PM

Just did, thanks oasis.

**Kong** · 09-10-2008, 09:27 PM

rarlabs.com and after the free trial period is over it just has a nag screen that says please purchase but you can still use it for free.

Google 7-zip. it rocks mah socks.

**Timber Wolf** · 01-08-2009, 06:13 PM

jZip(i think it's related to 7-zip), it's free, its good, i like it

**NintendoNerds** · 01-08-2009, 07:08 PM

Well, tails did say that he just wanted a program to unzip files so any unzipping program will do. If he wanted to zip/ pack or compress files, that would be a different story...as different programs do perform differently in that aspect; compression, sfx, passwords, encryption, etc. As long as tails isn't trying to unzip (decompress) any obscure extensions like JAR, TAR, ARJ, CAB, UUE, and so on any utility will do. I am assuming tails is (was) trying to unzip the common .zip file.

**SolarLune** · 02-22-2009, 06:41 PM

Yeah, I use 7-Zip. The 7z extension is certainly packed tighter than the .zip.

**Slime Slayer** · 02-23-2009, 08:45 AM

i dont get how anyone could go this long withought an unzip program?!

**Winnebagel** · 02-24-2009, 11:07 PM

I just got winrar, and it seems pretty good. We'll see how it works. It does seem better than Winzip to me. Winzip would not even let me attach and send files to Kong. Shame! Shame!

I just got 7zip when I started burning dreamcast games, but it has only failed me 3 times out of like 25

**The Good Doctor** · 03-23-2009, 11:28 PM

i agree with cam on 7zipon the fact it doesn't fail ofen.
i like it because is alot easier and quicker than winrar.

**Some Dude X** · 03-26-2009, 07:29 PM

WinRAR!!!

**A_Civilian** · 04-04-2009, 07:23 PM

IZArc.
Does nearly everything that WinRAR does (maybe more), but it's freeware.

**Shades** · 05-06-2009, 02:21 AM

I just let Windows do its thing.

You guys don't use the Explorer zip software? I mean, it's not flashy, but it gets the job done.

**sezthemank** · 05-06-2009, 09:07 PM

I would of said the same one as Oasis,
I have winrar and they havent stopped me using it - even though Ive had the trial version for ages.

**Shades** · 05-07-2009, 12:40 AM

True, Winrar is really the program to work with.

I'll go grab it once I get into a massive rarring mood.

**fungusman** · 05-12-2009, 12:26 AM

winrar, 7zip

**sezthemank** · 05-12-2009, 03:29 AM

Rarring mood?
