How to open RAR files on Windows 11:
- One of the easiest sites to use is Extract-me. Just head to Extract-me.
- Click on the “Choose file” button to browse your computer and select the RAR file you want to extract. Alternatively, if your file is on a cloud service (like Google Drive or Dropbox), you can paste the link directly.
- After selecting your file, click on the “Extract” button. The site will start processing your file, which usually takes just a few seconds.
- Once the extraction is done, you’ll see a list of files that were inside your RAR. Click on the files you want to download them individually, or there might be an option to download them all in a single ZIP file.
Things to Keep in Mind:
- File Size Limitations: Most online tools have limits on the file size you can upload, so if your RAR file is huge, it might not work.
- Internet Connection: Since this method requires uploading files to the web, make sure you have a good internet connection.
- Be cautious about uploading sensitive or private files, as they’ll be processed by a third-party service.
