| | WinRAR NOT Installation I have a problem. Windows Vista Buisness thinks that the WinRAR is an installation. It won't let me start it by right-clicking it, and if I start it from the Start Menu, it asks if I'm sure I want to run this program setup. Its NOT the setup, but the program itself. Is there a way I can make it run as a normal program? Thanks. |

| | Re: WinRAR NOT Installation I'm seeing the same thing with 3.62, maybe its time to revert to an older version!

| | Re: WinRAR NOT Installation The new beta version (I think 7.0) is "vista compatible". You can download that off the WinRAR website at www.rarlabs.com.

| | Re: WinRAR NOT Installation I have WinRar versions 3.51 and 3.60 and have no problem with them working. It seems folks are having issues with the newer builds, so perhaps see if you can try an older version.
