I always use winrar from the command line...old habit. It's true that I used to use pkzip and then winzip a lot, but I don't know exactly why I stopped using winzip. 7zip is nice too and it's free. Who remembers ARJ? Smile

Thankfully, haven't used command line to unpack a 50kb file in two decades at least. I hate command prompt Very Happy

I use Winrar every day.
Scene releases are all RARs.
