WinRAR overview

According to the WinRAR website, the software is used by over 500 million users worldwide, which is due to its user-friendliness, efficient compression algorithms, and good archiving features. WinRAR can be used with all types of files such as documents, images, videos, and audios.

With WinRAR, you can save space on your hard drive by compressing large files. However, this is not the only thing WinRAR does. In addition to data compression, WinRAR is very useful for archiving and managing files. It enables better exploration and easier access to files. WinRAR supports many archiving formats such as RAR, ISO, ZIP, LZH, ARJ, and GZ. When it comes to security, WinRAR supports the AES encryption algorithm to protect your valuable data and personal information.

Just like WinRAR compresses files, it does the opposite and decompresses the files while maintaining their original file and folder structure. As mentioned earlier, you can encrypt your compressed files for better security. Therefore, the decryption process is part of the decompression process if the archive has been encrypted. In this case, you need the encryption password to decrypt the archive.
