H RARLAB είναι η company πίσω από το WinRAR και τον γνωστό σε όλους τύπο συμπίεσης RAR. Μόλις κυκλοφόρησε την Final έκδοση του WinRAR 5.90.
The new version of WinRAR shareware comes with many new features, enhancements and fixes. Its previous version was the 5.80 that was released in December 2019.
WinRAR 5.90 is already available for Windows, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Linux and Android operating systems. Existing users can download the latest version from the RARLAB website and install it on an existing pre-installed version. WinRAR does not support automatic updates.
Those who want to see in detail what the new version provides can go to release notes from here. In general, however, the new version brings the following:
- RAR compression speed has been improved in systems with processors with 16 or more cores.
- Ο μέγιστος αριθμός νημάτων που χρησιμοποιεί το WinRAR έχει αυξηθεί από 32 σε 64. Ο διακόπτης γραμμής orders -mt δέχεται τιμές μεταξύ 1 και 64 για να αντικατοπτρίζει την αλλαγή.
- The new threads field in the settings replaces the multi-reference parameter. Accepts values between 1 and the number of CPU cores.
- When browsing compressed archives, compressed and uncompressed packet sizes are now displayed.
- RAR5 file repair performance improved.
- The progress bar and cancel button are displayed if reading the files takes a long time.
- Compression and decompression progress windows can now be resized.
Several bugs have been fixed in the new version, including an incorrect repair notification that displays "Recovery record is corrupt" when it is not. While the message did not affect a successful repair, it was annoying to users.
Briefly
WinRAR is still a very popular file compression application, despite the fact that there are now many free alternatives such as PeaZip or Bandizip or 7-zip και άλλες. Το program αυτό άνοιξε τον δρόμο στην συμπίεση, καθιέρωσε την κατάληξη .rar και γιαυτό παραμένει στην κορυφή.
