You might have come across the odd RAR archive file every now and then and wondered how you can extract files from it. UnRarX is a very intuitive tool that will do the work for you.

Just drag and drop your RAR file onto UnRarX's interface and let the application do the work. The extracting process will appear in the main section of the interface, letting you know if it was a success. You'll notice the buttons at the top right of the program which allow you to perform all the functions in UnRarX. You can quickly browse for the RAR file and extract it. The application also lets you test the file to see if it's not corrupt. Finally, if your file is password protected, just press the 'password' button and enter it to open and extract the archive.

My main complaint with UnRarX is that it simply lacks a help guide. The program is fairly straightforward to use, yet the interface is a little bare and could leave first time users a little perplexed. Similarly, I surprised that no update has ever been offered since 2003. We could assume that the program has been discontinued yet no word of it has been mentioned by the developer.

In all though, UnRarX is an efficient free file extractor to use only with RAR archive files.
