Replace WinRar
Posted
For as long as I can remember (june 2019), WinRAR has sat at the bottom of the page slowly being downloaded. As the community might know, you get 40 days of free winrar, then it annoys you with a pop up every time you open it.
Might I suggest something new?
PeaZip does everything winrar does, but better.
It supports 200+ file formats
It is free forever, no popup ads.
Supports linux natively without wine
Is open source (Though it is written in pascal so i doubt many people will understand it)
Comes with really neat icons for archives.
Handles Decryption well.
Is beginner friendly (good for the 9 year olds that come here)
And before you ask, no. I am not being paid to say this. I just love peazip and Im sure the community will too.

I think the ads will still prevent you from continuing to use it if you don't upgrade your account
