The winRar thread

#1
Ahem i am talking to the CEO of the Rarlab company.

i asked him why the program does'nt just uninstall itself, or simply lock, why ask your customers to buy if they do not have to?

his reply:

Hello,

It is intentional. We do not want to leave people with archives
which they created and cannot even unpack. It would be too hard.

i replied with something, and i am waiting response.

but mostly the reason is that he feels sorry for the pathetic people who do not use 7zip

Annoying as hell when i'm doing stuff like messing around with texture files in games.
he still wants you to buy the program so that will not happen... he just you know... wont make it lock or anything. xD

It didn't annoy me until when i started playing customisable games like Mugen, as well as some steam games. In the last few months I must have seen that damn pop up window at least 250 times while extracting folders. To counteract the annoyance I made a game where you have to exctract the file/s before it pops up, i beat it a couple of times.
