He needs to get it from Rarlab. The site keeps returning a 503 error with no server available. It’s happening on both my end and mine. Also, I tried WinRAR but faced the same issue. Is WinRAR still available?

Just use 7-Zip—it doesn’t have any annoying ads.

7-zip 4 is fine. Also, I don’t have any issues downloading from rarlab.com.

It works well for me too. 7-Zip has consistently performed poorly for me, with more issues and crashes.

Why use 7 Zip over WinRAR? I'm not sure which one works better, but both seem to cause issues with my files.

7zip is available without cost and is open source. It also seems to perform better, and it offers additional capabilities.
