What is WinRAR?
WinRAR is a powerful
compression, archiving
and archive managing
software tool.
With WinRAR, users can compress or
archive multiple electronic files into
single and significantly smaller size
folders. With this tool they will save
valuable space on their computer hard
drive, USB drive or mobile device and
manage their files more efficiently.
Users can also open, extract and man-
age archived files using WinRAR.
WinRAR is more than just a compres-
sor – its many integrated additional
functions enable users to organize and
protect their files from damage or unau-
thorized use.
Please
see below
for the main functions
of WinRAR
WinRAR is a
Trial product.
Anyone, private or corporate user, can
download WinRAR from our website
(
www.win-rar.com/download.html
),
or any of our global partners websites,
and test the software free of charge
during a 40 day trial period. With this
free evaluation opportunity, a potential
customer has the chance to test the
product and all of its functions before
deciding to purchase the license.
After the 40 day evaluation period, the
user has to either purchase a license or
uninstall the software from her/his com-
puter. We would encourage you to offer
the trial version of WinRAR to as many
computer users, organizations and
businesses as possible, and make them
familiar with the multifunctionality and
technical advantages of the product.
This way, you will be able to attract
more potential customers in the future.
Please also feel free to forward the
shorter WinRAR product brochure to
your customers, which is also included
in our information package.

Two types of
WinRAR licensing
There are 2 basic types of licenses is-
sued for RAR, these are:
A single computer usage license.
The user purchases one license to use
RAR archiver on one computer.
Home users may use their single com-
puter usage license on all computers
which are property of the license owner.
A multiple usage license.
Business users require one license per
computer.
The user purchases a number of usage
licenses for use by the purchaser or the
purchaser’s employees on the same
number of computers.
In a network (server/client) environ-
ment you must purchase a license copy
for each separate client (workstation)
on which WinRAR is installed, used,
or accessed. A separate license copy
for each client (workstation) is needed
regardless of whether the clients (work-
stations) will use RAR simultaneously or
at different times. If, for example, you
wish to have 9 different clients (work-
stations) in your network with access to
WinRAR, you must purchase 9 license
copies.
Please read our
licensing text at:
www.win-rar.com/winrarlicense.html
for
the details.

WinRAR is more than just a compres-
sor – its many integrated functions help
users organize and exchange their elec-
tronic files more efficiently and safely,
and protect them from damage.
WinRAR can be used…
To compress
and archive files
Although modern hard drives offer
bigger disk capacity, there is always a
need to store data more efficiently or
to transfer data to a mobile device; like
USB drive or CD/DVD. WinRAR can
manage such tasks easily and conve-
niently.
With WinRAR, users can compress a
number of large files into single, much
smaller sized folders in order to save
valuable space on their drives or porta-
ble devices. The files can be organized
into folders and the user can add to or
extract files from the archived folders.

To compress
e-mail attachments
There is growing need to exchange
files via e-mail or Internet; for example,
documents, movies and photos. But
often there are just too many files to
send or to upload.
WinRAR is an ideal solution for such a
problem. With WinRAR the users can
compress their multiple files into a sin-
gle and significantly smaller size folder
to make the sending and downloading
process much faster and easier.
With this tool, the user may send any
number of files as one small sized at-
tachment.

To password-protect
files and email
attachments.
With archiving or sharing data via Inter-
net, there is always a concern for safety
and data protection. For transmitting
documents containing sensitive private
or corporate information over the web,
WinRAR offers just the right solution.
Using 256-bit password encryption
technology (available from WinRAR ver-
sion 5.00), WinRAR provides users with
one of the safest ways to protect their
data. With WinRAR, they can password
protect their files before archiving them
on their computer or mobile devices,
or before sharing them via e-mail or
Internet. By encrypting their files with a
password, users will prevent unauthor-
ized viewing or use of their information.
This WinRAR function is especially
useful for corporate customers or
organizations who often exchange files
internally.

To lock folder content.
Besides password protecting their files,
users can also lock the content of their
archived folders. If a RAR file is locked,
the recipients will only be able to view
its content. They cannot modify or de-
lete any files from the locked folder, or
add any new data to it.
This function is particularly helpful for
corporate users who store or share
reports that need to be read but not
modified.
To split files.
Very often, especially with multimedia
files, a file is too big to store on a USB
drive or CD/DVD, or to share them via
Internet.
When compressing them is not enough,
WinRAR is able to split such files into
several smaller pieces, which can be
easily reassembled later. Users will then
not have any problem sending, transfer-
ring or saving their large sized files.

To create self- extracting
(SFX) compressed files
Users often do not know if the recipient
of a compressed e-mail attachment or
downloaded file has suitable software
to open them. This will not be a concern
if the sender creates a self-extracting
file using WinRAR. This file will still be
significantly smaller in size and it can be
extracted with just a double click, with-
out having to install any software.
This WinRAR function is especially use-
ful for business and home users who
would like to upload files or programs
online for download or for users who
send compressed files via e-mail or
data transfer.
To backup files
In information technology, backup
refers to making copies of data so that
these additional copies may be used to
restore data after their loss.
Backups are primarily useful for two
purposes: The first is to restore follow-
ing a disaster (called disaster recovery);
the second is to restore small numbers
of files after they have been acciden-
tally deleted or corrupted.
WinRAR has advanced backup features
that the user can use to backup their
files and protect them from accidental
loss.

So there is no need for additional
backup software. WinRAR can do it
perfectly. Users can also set auto-back-
up to automatically backup their files or
folders on a periodic basis.
To Protect files from
unwanted damage
Sometimes a backup is not enough to
protect your data if the hardware has
physical damage or the data is partially
lost. The RAR archive format supports
a special kind of redundant informa-
tion known as Recovery Records. If
an archive has a Recovery Record, it
can be repaired in the event of physi-
cal damage or any other partial data
losses. The ZIP format does not sup-
port Recovery Records.
Thus, WinRAR not only
compresses and archives
files and e-mail attach-
ments, but also provides
security, protection, and
flexibility for the users’
files and data.
This WinRAR multifunctionality makes it
an essential tool for both business and
home users’ daily use. It also means
that WinRAR can be used by any user.

In addition to its multifunctionality, Win-
RAR has many technical advantages
that puts it at the top of the compres-
sion software market. These technical
advantages include…
Safety and stability
With more than 20 years of continuous
development and improvements, Win-
RAR has established itself as a safe,
stable and state-of-the-art compression
tool. WinRAR creates and extracts mul-
tivolume archives flawlessly, and does
not create corrupt files.
Best compression-to-
speed ratio
WinRAR creates archive files with a
very high compression rate while at the
same time keeping the compression
process fast. Some compression soft-
ware try to provide better compression
rates, but then their compression time
is quite slow. Other types of compres-
sion software compress faster, but their
compression ratio is not desirable.
WinRAR is an ideal choice for this mat-
ter. It compresses files with a high ratio
and does so at high speed.

Easy to use
and user friendly
With its multifunctionality, WinRAR
is truly a professional product. Yet,
because of the simplicity of its use,
anyone who has some computer
knowledge can use the software.
Right-click context menu and drag-
and-drop options make compression
and decompression processes very
easy, and our intuitive interface, extrac-
tion location memory, and wizard op-
tions provide assistance to anyone who
is just getting familiar with WinRAR.
The registration and use of WinRAR
does not require a connection to the In-
ternet and WinRAR can always perform
its tasks in the background.
The right-mouse-click
context menu
This WinRAR option helps users to ar-
chive their data or compress and e-mail
their files with just a simple click. No
need to run the software to compress,
extract or e-mail compressed files.

Convenient
network installation
For network administrators there are
numerous ways of easily installing Win-
RAR in a network environment. It is also
possible to disable access to the main
menu and settings dialog. This feature
will help to preserve WinRAR settings in
multi-user environments.
Large file support
WinRAR can compress and archive files
with the size up to 8,589,934,591GB.
RAR archive format is especially well
suited for heavy tasks involving large
numbers of files and significant disk
space.
WinRAR is mobile
As from WinRAR version 5.20 it is pos-
sible to use the WinRAR.ini file instead
of the registry to store WinRAR set-
tings.
This will be extremely helpful if users
want to install WinRAR on removable
media, such as a USB flash drive in
order to run it on different computers.

within the WinRAR help section under
“Configuration settings”/”WinRAR.ini
