Developer's Description
By
RARLAB
- RAR introduces an original compression algorithm. It provides high compression ratios on executable files, object libraries, large text files, etc.
- RAR offers an optional compression algorithm highly optimized for multimedia data.
- RAR provides functionality for creating a 'solid' archive, which can raise the compression ratio by 10% - 50% over more common methods, particularly when packing large numbers of small files.
- RAR offers the ability to create and change SFX archives using default and external SFX modules.
- RAR offers the ability to create a multi-volume archive as SFX.
- RAR offers a number of service functions, such as setting a password, adding archive and file comments. Even physically damaged archives may be repaired and an archive may be locked to prevent further changes.
Full Specifications
What's new in version 4.20
1. Dialogs are centered inside of WinRAR window similarly to WinRAR 5.80 and not inside of the entire screen as in WinRAR 5.90.
2. When editing an archived file with external software, extra measures are taken to reduce the probability of interfering with editor and opening its temporary files while editor still may need them.
3. "Version to extract" field in archive properties opened from Windows Explorer context menu provides the additional information about ZIP compression and encryption algorithms, such as LZMA or AES. This information was already available in WinRAR "Info" command, but missed in archive information accessible from Windows Explorer.
4. "MS DOS" and "Unix" host OS types are recognized and included for LZH archives in "Info" command. Previously the host OS field was always "Unknown" for LZH archive format.
5. Files created by external editor and matching "Settings/Viewer/Ignore modifications for" masks are never added to archive. Previously WinRAR still added them if some file not matching these masks was also created or modified.
6. Bugs fixed:
a) empty file names were displayed inside of some Unix LZH archives;
b) WinRAR could not process more than 999 7z volumes in a single set;
c) if the user canceled the user account control prompt after changing the "Integrate WinRAR into shell" option, a new state of this option was displayed in the "Settings" dialog, even though the actual state of shell integration was not modified;
d) the main window size could be too small on the first run after a clean install with no previous WinRAR version present;
e) WinRAR could stop responding after editing an archived file with external software in Windows 10 version 2004.
