- matrix_overload 3y agoEffectively killing the company that developed it. Yeah, great idea.
- slashtom 3y agoI thought microsoft has been super generous in that regard. winrar has been out for 25+ years, effectively giving winrar a long runway to collect. It's about time this is incorporated into windows os.
- vetinari 3y agoLibarchive (the backend for this functionality) cannot create rar archives, only read them. So the company that developed it will be fine. You will still need winrar.
- vitorgrs 3y agoMicrosoft also announced RAR compression thought. https://imgur.com/a/JiSd168 https://imgur.com/a/JiSd168
- jug 3y ago?? This will only have RAR extraction and UNRAR.DLL was deliberately not commercial.
