Five basic guidelines to download

Five basic guidelines to download

Never downloaded programs before? We show you how, and what you should do to keep your download experience happy.

Your friend uses an application that makes assignments seem like a breeze or your colleague collects brownie points with boss by creating jazzy presentations. Well, stop fretting because you too can become the boss’s favorite. Just download applications from the Internet that help simplify your task.

The installation process of the software you download could be different for different computers, operating systems or browsers, but you just need to keep these five simple guidelines in mind.

Step One

Make a directory for downloads by right-clicking anywhere on the Windows desktop. This helps keep your desktop and hard drive mess-free, and grants easy access to all your downloads.

Step Two

Find the software that you want on the Internet and download. Usually all sites have a download link. Once you click on this link, a box pops up which gives you the option to Run, Save or Cancel the download. Click on the Save option and save the file in your download folder on the desktop.

Step Three

Most files that you download from the Internet are compressed. This reduces the download time considerably and helps in keeping all the files related to the program - like help files and drivers – together in a single file. Unzip the file using a program like WinZip. Files with the extension EXE are generally self-extracting files that decompress by double-clicking it. The installation in this kind of files start automatically after which you can skip directly to step 5.

Step Four

The next step is installation. You can look for the Install or Setup file from the folder you have unzipped the files into. WinZip can also detect the Install or Setup program contained in a ZIP file. While decompressing, it creates a button called Install in the WinZip button bar. Click this Install button, and let WinZip do the rest. Follow the instructions as they come up.

During install, the program will ask questions on the location where you want to install the software, and what program you want to add it to. Choose the default settings unless you have more knowledge or have a personal preference. Creating a desktop icon will give you easy access to the program.

Step Five

Once you have the program up and running, you don’t need the downloaded compressed file anymore. You can delete it.

WinRAR supports all popular compression formats (RAR, ZIP, CAB, ARJ, LZH, ACE, TAR, GZip, UUE, ISO, BZIP2, Z and 7-Zip).

WinRAR is ideal for multimedia files. WinRAR automatically recognizes and selects the best compression method. The special

compression algorithm compresses multimedia files, executables and object libraries particularly well.

WinRAR allows you to split archives into separate volumes easily, making it possible to save them on several disks for example.

WinRAR is also ideal, if you are sending data through the web. Its 128 bit password encryption and its authenticated signature technology will give you the peace of mind you have been looking for.

WinRAR is a 32-bit Windows version of RAR Archiver, an archiver and archive manager. RAR files can usually compress content by 8 percent to 15 percent more than ZIP files can. WinRAR?s main features include strong general and multimedia compression, the ability to process non-RAR archive formats, ZIP compression and decompression, support for long filenames, programmable self-extracting archives (SFX), repair of damaged archives, authenticity verification, embedded file comments, and encryption.

Unicode is supported in archive filenames, allowing non-English filenames to be handled painlessly. You can manipulate the parameters of many archives at once and view a volume sequence as a single archive. WinRAR can convert other archive formats to RAR and search for specified text and files in archives.

It's Winrar 3.80 Professional pre activated. No Keygen needed. Just unzip and Go!

How to Use WinRar

How to Use WinRar

This will show the basics for anyone new to winrar, how to extract a file, archive (rar) a file and way to check large files before you download all the parts.

Extracting a file

This is the easy way to extract (unrar) a file.

1- Right click on the rar file and it will open a menu box, there will be 3 choices, ignore

the first one which will leave "extract here" and extract to "name of file"

Either one will work but extract to is better just because it will make a new folder and put all the files in it (program, crack, readme and NFO files etc.). Extract here works too but if whoever uploaded it didnt put everything in a folder before raring it the parts of will not be together.

2- Click extract to and your done, just open the new folder and it's all in there.

Archiving a file

Archiving or raring a file is not that hard and winrar has a wizzard to help you but it's easy without it too.

1-Right click on the file you want to rar, then click add to archive.

This will open a new dialog box where you set everything up. Change the file name if your going to upload to rapidshare, they will delete the file if they see it's copywrited (movie, application etc.), sochange it to something that dosent discribe it (Ironman.rar to ima.rar)

2- Click recovery record, choose best for quality and if the file is larger then 100mb you need to split the file, just enter 100mb and it will do the rest.

3- Now click advanced then set password, enter your password and click encrypt file names (even if your not password protecting the file do this, this keeps file hosts from seeing whats in the rar file).

4- Click OK and your done, see not that hard is it.

Winrar trick

Some people know about this, some don't but it someting good to know.

Have you ever downloaded a movie and found the quality realy bad and if you are a free user it took a long time to find out it's bad, well there is a way to check the quality before you download all the parts.

1- Download part 1 of the movie, right click on it and pick the first choice "extract file" this will open a dialog box, leave everything as it is but click save broken files, then click OK. This will extract just the one part and let you view it to see how it is, if its ok just download the rest and extract them starting with part 1. You can delete the AVI file you checked because you dont need it.

This will also solve most CCR errors

Hope this helps anyone new to winrar, the ways I discribed are much easier then using the winrar console which tends to confuse people.
