WinRAR officials said that they are “honoured” by Microsoft’s actions. This move will not only make RAR compressed files more popular, but also provide high convenience for users who are not familiar with WinRAR. We were quite surprised by how long it took to support RAR files, and we wondered if Microsoft would consider adding a RAR engine in the next 30 years?”
