Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I convert RAR files to ZIP format?
Converting RAR files to ZIP format offers several advantages: ZIP files have better universal compatibility and are natively supported by Windows, macOS, and most Linux distributions without requiring third-party software. ZIP archives are more widely accepted by email services, cloud storage platforms, and file-sharing websites. Additionally, standardizing your archives to a single format like ZIP creates a more consistent and manageable file library.
Is this RAR to ZIP converter really 100% offline?
Yes, our RAR to ZIP converter operates completely offline. All conversion processes happen locally on your computer, and your files are never uploaded to any server or cloud service. This ensures maximum privacy and security for your archives, making it ideal for converting sensitive or confidential data.
Will I lose any data when converting RAR to ZIP?
Our converter is designed to maintain full data integrity during the RAR to ZIP conversion process. All files, folders, and their structures are preserved in the resulting ZIP archive. The conversion process simply changes the container format while ensuring all content remains identical to the original. For optimal results, we recommend using similar compression settings for your ZIP files as were used in the original RAR archives.
Can I convert password-protected RAR files?
Yes, our converter supports password-protected RAR archives. When you add a password-protected RAR file, the application will prompt you to enter the password. You can then choose to maintain password protection in the resulting ZIP file (with the same or a different password) or create an unprotected ZIP archive. For security reasons, we recommend maintaining encryption for sensitive data.
How many RAR files can I convert at once?
There is no limit to the number of RAR files you can convert in a batch. Our software supports extensive batch processing, allowing you to convert multiple RAR archives to ZIP format simultaneously. The conversion speed will depend on your computer’s processing power and the size/complexity of the RAR archives being converted.
Can I convert multi-part RAR archives (.part1.rar, .r01, etc.)?
Yes, our converter fully supports multi-part RAR archives. Simply select the first file in the sequence (.part1.rar or .rar), and our software will automatically detect and process all parts of the archive. The result will be a single ZIP file containing all the contents from the multi-part RAR archive, making it easier to manage and share.
What’s the difference between the Free, Basic, and Pro versions?
The Free version offers complete RAR to ZIP conversion functionality with standard options. Basic ($4.99/month) and Pro ($9.99/month) plans provide additional features like advanced compression settings, batch profiles, scheduled conversions, and priority customer support. However, all core conversion capabilities are available in the Free version, making it suitable for most users’ needs.
Can I automate RAR to ZIP conversions?
Yes, our Basic and Pro plans offer automation features that allow you to set up watched folders for automatic RAR to ZIP conversion. When new RAR files appear in designated folders, they are automatically converted to ZIP format according to your predefined settings. This is particularly useful for users who regularly receive RAR archives and prefer to work with ZIP files.
