RAR is a general purpose archiving and compression program competing with/replacing programs such as PKZip, ARJ, and others. It offers significantly improved compression ratios, easier use and a cheaper price as well as supporting long file names, disk spanning, and self-extracting file creation.

You can also try RAR for Mac OS X, Linux, or FreeBSD.

    Apparently you don't understand the concept of beta ... just like this site name happens to be - let alone the application in question!

    It's very rare that the programmer of WinRAR has made a misstep, but 4.20 is one of them. Reverted to 4.11 and all is well.

    Crashes on closing of the app, went back to 4.11 and everything is working fine.

    Anyone concerned about memory usage should try 7Zip... That memory enables greater amounts of compression... Besides our computers have many Gigabytes of memory now
