capitalG386 Posted August 8, 2010 Share Posted August 8, 2010 well to be blunt does it matter witch one i get? or are they pretty mutch interchangable? its just that im considering wich one to get but dont want to get one that iv barely heard of b4 winrar maybe familiar to some/most of u all but im way more familiar with winzip hence this post im just trying to make sure i make the right choice is all and normally id say stick with the ones u know but in this instance it might be better to go with the one thats new to me. :wallbash: :unsure: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argomirr Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'd recommend 7-zip, it's open source (and therefore totally free, unlike WinRAR) and it has a better compression ratio too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bben46 Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Those three, Winrar, Winzip and 7-zip can all handle anything you are likely to find on TesNexus - or almost anywhere else. Winzip is a commercial product and costs about US $30. WinRar is a shareware product and they allow try before you buy. It constantly throws up nag screens telling you you need to pay after the trial time. 7-Zip is totally free, with no advertising, no registration, no nagging or anything It is at least as good as the other two, and just as easy to use. And it is available right here on TesNexus: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15579 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
