thebluekirby 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2005 actaully, I've been using winzip for a while because i find and come across more ZIP files then RAR files on the internet. And since WINZIP was the default compressing file I had, i just used that one =P but now i have winrar but i rarely use it because i rarely download rar files. figures =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phoenixhosting 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2005 I personaly think that Winrar is better because it is easier to understand and it can open more file types. 190485[/snapback] i also like win rar bnetter than winzip because like you said its is easier than winzipthe file manager can store more things and you can encrypt and compress them and it is really easy to register because you can just type in the activation code and a message will come up sayin activation succesfull or invalid code enterd and when you have registerd it you get even more fetures!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sonorama 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 Yeah, I agree with dooga: I use Power Archiver for compressing and unzipping (uncompressing), but I personally like winrar for downloads. Besides that, Power Archiver is quite a good tool for everyone who wants to unzip any type of compressed file.Cheers!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ao)K-General 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I myself use WinZip. I think it is good. I really don't care if WinRar can open more file types. WinZip is good for what I use it for. It all depends on what you are using it for. If you are going to use just .zip files than use WinZip. If you are going to use many different types of files, than use WinRar. Just my opinion.

Arigato 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I used tot be a winzip user but as I found myself encoutering more and more .rar files I decided to swich to winrar which i find does the job just as well. Also, it unarchives more file types. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fffanatics 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I use winrar. It is easy to use and does a good job. Plus, it unrars a file relatively quick which is nice when you have to unrar a large file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leiaah 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 I personally think Winrar is better. It is able to open different file types and winzip doesn't offer that. I used to have Power Archiver before but now I'm a winrar user. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mysterio 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2005 Let see i use both but for different reasons. Roller Coaster Tycoon 2 uses WinZip all the time but i am not playing that game as much anymore because i got Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. And with that when you download stuff onto it you need WinRAR. They are both great but if i had to pic WinRAR. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gogoily 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 I like WinRAR moreIt can release more file format than WinZip and the .rar files are much smaller than .zip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wariorpk 0 Report post Posted November 1, 2005 I personally think that Winzip is the best program you can get. I no longer use Winzip because my free trail has expired. If you do not mind paying the money to buy it I would highly recommend it. If you do not have money like me you should get something else (I just use the unzip utility that comes with Windows because I am cheap and it works pretty good if you only handle .zip files).
