WinRAR is proprietary commercial software distributed by RARLAB. It is commonly offered as a free trial with a nag screen; after the trial period users are expected to purchase a license. The RAR compression algorithm and format remain under the developer’s control; however, an unRAR source code for extracting RAR files has been made available under a restrictive license for compatibility purposes.
