WINZIP or WINRAR?

TDK1044 · 02-29-08, 07:17 AM

Can you extract this Add On using WINRAR, or does it need to be WINZIP? I have it downloaded, but I won't extract or install it for a while yet. Just curious about which extraction program works best.

7-Zip is the one I couldn't remember the name of. Thanks, Dowly, I'll download that software.

Winrar does 7zip too

It's early.

Where did you get that picture of Neal training with the Texas Rangers?

Ah, yes. Special Agent Dimitrescu...I should have known!

Does it actually matter whether you select the 'Extract Here' or 'Extract to silenthunter4uboatmissions_100_us' address?

That depends on how the original archive was created. You could end up with thousands of files scattered about the folder you extract in. Better to go the second route and possibly end up with one folder level extra.

Edit : IZArc also handles, zip, rar, 7z and many other archive formats.
