meatbag58 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Hi, I'm new here, and I really screwed up downloading my first mod, I was wondering if anyone could help me. Earlier today, I attempted to download the Hitman Suit mod, a .rar file, and I was prompted to choose a program to open it with. I stupidly chose "Fallout 3." Now, everytime I download a .rar file, it is always opened with the wrong program and I don't know how to change it. I was wondering if anyone knew which program was the correct program to open a .rar file with as well as how to change which program you open a .rar file with.

hoofhearted4 Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 i use 7-Zip for my .zip and .rar files. to change what the default program isfor Windows 7, just go to: Start > Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Associate a file type or protocol with a program. then from there, scroll down to .rar and select what you want to use to open it. hope this helped :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
