How do you install rar files?

Anunnaki · 03-5-2007, 06:35 PM

I've noticed that some files (although scarce) are in .rar format, How do I install these files? (don't worry I know how to do .zip files)

Thanks for any help, and sorry if this is a noobish question

Hmm, I don't know what you mean by install and to be honest with you I don't even know what this is doing here but if you want to unzip rar files, you should use WinAce. As far as I know, WinZip can't handle them.

Try this one bud. Don't worry, there's a trial version that you can run the days up on without having to buy it.

-Open up the .rar
-If there is a folder of the song in the rar., then you drag and drop that folder into your SM songs folder.
-If it is the contents (song mp3, bg art, bn art, etc.); make a folder in your SM songs folder called "the songs name" and drag and drop the contents inside.

Problem solved.
