    Am in the US and used winrar for a long time as it was integrated into Usenet binaries as rar files. It was embedded with some other software.

      WinRAR was what I used in the 2000s. Around 2011, 7-zip was my goto. I haven’t looked back since.

      I wasn’t aware of pea-zip until this thread
