Windows 10: WinRAR

I did a reset on my Windows 10, I had winRAR.. now it's gone
How do I get it for free again?
This laptop was bought with winRAR on it..

:)

 

WinRAR

If you are unable to locate the file using the search function, it could mean that the document was not saved, and may mean permanent data loss. However, Microsoft Office programs display the last few documents you have opened or edited in that program.
This way you can access these files quickly. May we know if you are able to view the file through the
Recently used feature? You may see this feature by following the steps on this
link.

We look forward to an update from you.

 

WinRAR

Yes it was a MS word doc. No can't locate file by search bar .

 

You'd have to use the restore partition on your laptop which will restore your laptop to exactly the state it was in when you bought it. I'm not sure that's really worth it. Note: you'd lose ANYTHING on your hard disk.

There are free compression programs if you want a compression program- hey, you could even buy a license...*chuckle

 

you might want to check the support site for your laptop.........sometimes the laptop manufacturer will have downloads for the software that was included with your model.......

 

An alternative is to use 7-zip. It is free and as good as WinRAR if not better since It can also open .WIM and .ESD file:
Download

 

How do I restore? :O
It's worth a try since there's really nothing on my hard drive still

 

wow! *Redface thank you soooo much for this!
