    .rar file to winRAR

    Hi G41axyX

    Do you have WinRAR installed on your PC?

    If so: right click a RAR, choose 'Open With' - Choose Another App

    Important - Check the box marked 'Always use this app to open rar . . .'

    If WinRAR is not in the list, scroll to the bottom and click 'More Apps'

    Again if WinRAR is not in the list, at the bottom, click 'Look for another app on this PC', then navigate to find the WinRAR executable . . .

    As per the description, I understand that you are experiencing issue with installation of WinRAR in Windows 10.

    I certainly understand your concern and will try my best to help you.

    I would suggest you to try installing the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.
