Good Guide, winrar>all. JUV, O HAI I FINK U R THE GUY FROM THAT PRIV SERVAR?#?#$

I hate using extract i just drag it onto my desktop :P.
 
Doesn't even cover compression levels... terrible guide.
 
Cause I didnt mention one thing its a terrible guide? Thanks for the comment
You don't cover passwords, comments, the fact that it's nagware, ways around passwords, encryption, pretty much anything past installing it and extracting a single file. You also didn't do a comparison between 7zip, bzip2, gzip, zip or other compressed archives. What about split archives? Self-extracting archives?

Actually, 7zip and bzip2 achieve better compression.
 
This is just a simple basic guide how to install and how to use.
Thanks, I needed this while I'm still waiting for my brain to get here with Purolator.
 
On the " How to use Winrar " part, there's an image that doesn't work. But overall nice guide. You included pictures and ok grammar. You need to include commas in your text. You set it out nicely. I could understand it 100%. Overall I give it a 8/10.
