Only if you have money to burn.
Tbh i dont see a reason to even use it since it come with the os (unless you use Linux).

[Castyles]

Just do it.

Buy WinZip instead

A WinRar license is mostly aimed at businesses and other commercial venues so you don't really need it.

though it's your money so go nuts

You must. It's a badge of honor. It means you've been there and you've seen things... It means you're paying homage to those who have gone on before you. Buy the license, get your name officially recognized as an official supporter, join the subreddit of your brothers and become immortal, just like Winrar.

FYI for others - Winrar is free, provided the user agrees to the "trial period." And, the trial period is only enforced by the user's honor, alone. It's always been that way and Winrar's "honor system" is legendary.

That still exists?
tar and 7zip are all you'll ever need.

I bought it just to support them. I remember i paid less when i clicked buy now in the winrar message compared to when i visited the site normally.Than i had an additioonall message which said if i want to pay less and than it was only 20 bucks at the end . When i visited the site normally ii would have paid over 40 something. If you use it a lot than yes support them

It will depend on how regularly you use it, but sure. Can be a good purchase for some people and it supports the developers.

I personally like WinRAR over some others like WinZip or 7-Zip.

Exploits in those apps have been patched, so it's a good idea to have them up-to-date.

Tip: Use the trial version and wait till it expired or visit the URL:

It will likely give you a special price offer.
