Absolutely nothing, plus 7zip can be faster with better compression.
Well, apparently it can do some recovery of corrupted .rar, but who uses that format anyway
I’ve used .rar to backup some data to an unpowered drives, some time ago. You can reserve additional space for the checksums while compressing, so you won’t be able to recover just regular .rar files.
Can anyone eli5 what winrar offers that 7zip doesn’t? I don’t hate winrar but I failed to ever need it or prefer it instead of 7zip.
Not sure myself. Like many I used WinRAR back in the day, but it’s been at least 15 years since I last installed it.
Winrar is older, so it has more sentimental users
Nanazip is a fork of 7-zip that is better on Windows 11. Doesn’t answer your question. Just making you aware
Lmao
