Subject: .rar file problems

Hello again, genius type peoples.  I have some .rar files that Windows 7 won't open.  I went to the Microsoft site and downloaded their "suggested" fix and it wants to charge me for the software.  I downloaded Stuffit from MicroSystems, same problem.  I need a simple, free .rar expander that works with 64bit W7.  Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Download the trial of WinRar. You can use it free for 30 days.

You can also try 7-Zip which is free.

 

EDIT: You can also try this

just use Winrar. (and you can just ignore the 30 day limit looks innocent)
