WinRAR is the most common archiving program. It allows to work with popular formats RAR, ZIP, ACE, JAR, 7Z, ARJ, CAB, GZ, Z, ISO, LZH, UUE, TAR, XZ with the maximum data compression rate and almost no system slowdown. Multi-core systems are supported and file compression speed is increased. Improved compression algorithm is used for multimedia files, libraries and executable programs.
New archiving principle is realized in WinRAR (with dictionary up to 1 Gb which automatically decreases at memory shortage) and that helps increase program's speed. Decompression (AES-256) and decompression algorithms work with several processor cores simultaneously, which minimize system resources consumption and allow playing games or watching movies in Internet while data are being archived.
