FAQ:
extract RAR files on Windows and Linux
Topics: extract RAR files, free RAR extractor,
Open Source RAR files extractor, RAR freeware, RAR archives

RAR is a popular archive format
introduced by WinRAR for
Windows platform, and
ported to Linux (only as extractor) by the same Author of WinRAR Eugene
Roshal.
RAR format is well known for the high compression ratio archives,
strong
encryption and advanced data recovery capabilities (recovery records).
PeaZip, freeware and open source utility, supports by default RAR browsing,
testing and extraction on Linux and Windows, through the open
source implementation rewritten as free software by Igor Pavlov in 7-Zip and
p7zip.
To extract one or more RAR files through PeaZip you
can:
Use context menu entry "Extract here" or
"Extract
here (to new folder)"
- Use context menu entry "Extract..." to be asked
for
output path and other options
- Open the archive in
PeaZip
and use
"Extract" button (you can chose output path, enter password and other
options before confirming with "Ok") to extract selected object, or
Ctrl+E for quick extraction simply specifying output path.
- Open the archive in
PeaZip
and drag desired objects from the application to the system (the
opposite can be used to add objects to the archive)
- Open the archive in
PeaZip
and
doubleclick on an archived file to preview it
To enter password
in PeaZip click in the locker icon in
the status bar
(in the file/archive browser) or the locker icon below output address
field in extraction or archiving interfaces, or click Tools > Enter
password / keyfile in main menu, or press F9.
"Keyfile" is optional, leave it blank if you don't want to rely on two
factor authentication - use of keyfile increases security over password
only encryption since also having access to the keyfile will be
required to perform the extraction.
