WinRAR 5.30 Beta 3

WinRAR treats .txz archive extension as .tar.xz and opens .txz contents in a single step.
If you drag a file from another application to WinRAR holding Shift button, a file will be deleted after archiving. Previous versions ignored Shift state here.
WinRAR ignores "Turn PC off when done" option in case of read and write errors if user pressed Cancel in repeat read or repeat write dialogs.
Bugs fixed:
archive comment is displayed also in empty ZIP archives. Previous versions did not display it if ZIP archive did not contain any files;
Explorer window containing a temporary folder with unpacked file could be opened when attempting to view an archived file in a corrupt ZIP archive. File entry in a corrupt ZIP could have a wrong "hard drive" icon

WinRAR 5.30 Beta 4

It is allowed to specify environment variables in path to external viewer in WinRAR "Settings/Viewer" dialog.
Folder wildcards behavior is changed, so command like: rar a backup c:\backup\2015*\* will search for '2015*' folders only in c:\backup. Add -r switch if you wish to search also in all c:\backup subfolders.
If wrong password is specified when extracting an encrypted file in RAR5 archive, WinRAR will not create folders contained in file path. Previous versions created file path folders even if file extraction failed because of wrong password. This change does not affect RAR 4.x format, which does not allow to verify password validity before starting file extraction.
Bugs fixed:
"Delete files after archiving" option of default compression profile was ignored in drag&drop operations in previous beta.

WinRAR 5.30 Beta 5

Information about the critical vulnerability in WinRAR self-extracting archives recently published in news is incorrect. Unfortunately mass media failed to recognize that what was described as WinRAR vulnerability is Windows OLE vulnerability patched in November 2014. Even if unpatched, this Windows OLE vulnerability does not introduce new risk factors for WinRAR SFX archives. No patches for WinRAR are needed.
"Import/Export" commands:
WinRAR performs the additional validation of Settings.reg contents for "Import settings from file" command to prevent importing Registry keys unrelated to WinRAR settings;
WinRAR specifies the full path to regedit.exe tool to prevent running copies of "regedit" from other folders.
Bugs fixed:
If 'file' and 'file.exe' were present in the same folder and user double clicked on 'file', WinRAR could start 'file.exe' instead;
"Generate report" command could create a report in wrong folder, not that with selected files;
RAR could crash when unpacking .rar archives with corrupt file headers. Fixed now.

WinRAR 5.30 Beta 6

Bugs fixed:
"Print file" command did not work with HTML files in Windows 10;
if relative path to report file was specified, "Generate report" command created a report file in WinRAR start folder instead of current WinRAR folder;
in some cases text scaling in SFX archive main and license dialogs in high DPI mode did not work, so text size was smaller than expected;
changes in broken archive processing to handle invalid ZIP, ARJ and ISO archives more reliably;
RAR "l" and "v" list commands added unneeded spaces after file names shorter than 12 characters.

WinRAR 5.31 Beta 1

Following issues are corrected in Windows high DPI mode:
if text size in Windows settings was set to 150% or larger, the font size in WinRAR help was not increased accordingly, resulting in too small text;
default columns width in WinRAR file list was less than expected for 125% or larger Windows text setting.
Bugs fixed:
WinRAR SFX module could load DLL libraries from its own executable folder as a result of calling some Windows API functions. It could lead to security threat if DLL files with malicious code were stored in the same folder as SFX archive. Now SFX module takes additional steps to prevent such situation in Windows Vista and newer. Be aware that Windows XP users still can be affected, so they must be especially careful to run SFX archive from a folder without suspicious DLL files;
WinRAR 5.30 failed to run .lnk files from file list.

WinRAR 5.40 Beta 2

Switch -scul can be used to process big endian UTF-16 list files,
provided that they have the correct byte order mark.
Previously it supported only little endian file lists.

5.40 beta 1 did not work on CPU without SSE2 instruction set.

It could take excessively long time to cancel WinRAR "Repair"
command on some corrupt archives.

If "Generate archive name by mask" option was used and archive
was created in a system protected folder requiring privileges
elevation, mask was added to archive name twice.

Version 5.40 beta 3

1. Bugs fixed:

a) RAR exited with code 6 (file open error) instead of expected
code 10 (no files found) if file name specified for archiving
did not exist;

b) WinRAR could issue an excessive sound notification in the middle
of archiving if sound was enabled in WinRAR settings
and "Put each file to separate archive" option turned on;

c) WinRAR did not delete a temporary file if ZIP archive modification
was aborted, because ZIP archive had the read-only attribute;

d) WinRAR crashed if "Print file" command was applied to a file
or folder without extension.

WinRAR 5.40 Beta 4 EN

Bugs fixed:
if ZIP archive contained an archive comment shorter than 24 characters, the comment page was not displayed in archive properties in Windows Explorer;
'WinRAR x *.rar' command crashed if complete .part1.rar, .part2.rar, ..., .partN.rar volume set was found when expanding *.rar mask.

WinRAR 5.50 beta 6 Released (Jul 25, 2017)

Version 5.50 beta 6

1. File association option for JAR files is off by default
in WinRAR installer unless you enabled it earlier in previous
WinRAR versions. You need to enable this option manually
if you wish to associate WinRAR with *.jar.

2. Unless "Allow absolute paths in symbolic links" extraction dialog
option or -ola command line switch are specified, WinRAR does not
allow to extract symbolic links with ".." in target if any of
link path components is an existing symbolic link itself.
It is done to prevent bypassing WinRAR security checks with
chains from several symbolic links.

3. Bugs fixed:

a) if "Add" command was used from inside of archive opened
in WinRAR interface, "file not found" error could be issued
for files which pathnames included spaces;

b) fixed crashes when unpacking corrupt RAR archives;

c) "rar a arc. filename" command created "arc." archive
with trailing dot instead of expected "arc" without any extension;

d) "New folder" button in extraction dialog selected a parent of
newly created folder instead of such folder itself;

e) "Checksum error" could be mistakenly reported for some valid
GZIP archives.

WinRAR 5.60 Beta 1

Version 5.60 beta 1

1. We updated WinRAR graphics.

We are grateful to

and

Zaloguj lub Zarejestruj się aby zobaczyć!

designers participated in this endeavor and proud to announce that
WinRAR uses the new icon set prepared by Aditya Nugraha Putra
from

Zaloguj lub Zarejestruj się aby zobaczyć!

.

Previous WinRAR icons are available as interface theme here:

Zaloguj lub Zarejestruj się aby zobaczyć!

2. "Repair" command efficiency is improved for recovery record protected
RAR5 archives. Now it can detect deletions and insertions of unlimited
size also as shuffled data including data taken from several recovery
record protected archives and merged into a single file in arbitrary
order.

3. "Turn PC off when done" archiving option is changed to "When done"
drop down list, so you can turn off, hibernate or sleep your PC
after completing archiving.

4. Use -ioff or -ioff1 command line switch to turn PC off,
-ioff2 to hibernate and -ioff3 to sleep your PC after completing
an operation.

5. If encoding of comment file specified in -z<file> switch is not
defined with -sc switch, RAR attempts to detect UTF-8, UTF-16LE
and UTF-16BE encodings based on the byte order mask and data
validity tests.

6. WinRAR attempts to detect ANSI, OEM and UTF-8 encodings of
ZIP archive comments automatically.

7. "Internal viewer/Use DOS encoding" option in "Settings/Viewer"
is replaced with "Internal viewer/Autodetect encoding".
If "Autodetect encoding" is enabled, the internal viewer attempts
to detect ANSI (Windows), OEM (DOS), UTF-8 and UTF-16 encodings.

8. Normally Windows Explorer context menu contains only extraction
commands if single archive has been right clicked. You can override
this by specifying one or more space separated masks in "Always display
archiving items for" option in Settings/Integration/Context menu items",
so archiving commands are always displayed for these file types
even if file was recognized as archive. If you wish both archiving
and extraction commands present for all archives, place "*" here.

9. SFX module "SetupCode" command accepts an optional integer parameter
allowing to control mapping of setup program and SFX own error codes.
It is also accessible as "Exit code adjustment" option
in "Advanced SFX options/Setup" dialog.

10. New "Show more information" WinRAR command line -im switch.
It can be used with "t" command to issue a message also in case of
successful archive test result. Without this switch "t" command
completes silently if no errors are found.

This switch is applicable only to WinRAR.exe and ignored by console
RAR.exe.

11. If a wrong password is entered when unpacking an encrypted file
in ZIP archive, WinRAR proposes to enter a valid password
for same file again instead of aborting extraction.

12. If a wrong password is entered when opening or unpacking RAR archive
with encrypted file names, WinRAR proposes to enter a valid password
again instead of aborting the operation. Previous versions already
did so for RAR archives with encrypted file data, but aborted
for archives with file name encryption.

13. WinRAR recognizes GZIP files with arbitrary data preceding
an actual GZIP archive, such as .scexe firmware files.

14. @filelist parameter can be specified in "Files to add" field of
archiving dialog. In this case WinRAR will attempt the list of archiving
files from 'filelist' file, which should be the plain text, one file
name per line.

15. Info dialog:

a) compression ratio graph is updated;

b) "Names and data" is displayed in "Encryption" field for
archives with encrypted file names.

16. Full archive name is displayed if mouse pointer is placed over
an archive name in the operation progress window. It can be useful
if archive name is lengthy and does not fit to available window space.

17. If -ts1 switch is used with -u or -f, file time comparison is performed
with 1 second precision. Previosuly in such case we could wrongly treat
an adding file as newer than archived just because we compared the high
precision adding file time against the low precision archived file time.

18. "Update" and "Fresh" commands ('u' and 'f' in the command line mode)
quit immediately if no files are to be updated. Previously they created
a temporary archive before quitting when updating archives with recovery
record or quick open information.

19. Prompt is issued after creating 500 volumes from WinRAR GUI shell,
so user can continue or quit further archiving. It is done to prevent
creating many thousands of volumes in case of wrongly entered
volume size.

20. WinRAR uses megabytes instead of bytes as default units for volume size
field in the archiving dialog.

21. "Repair" command issues "Recovery record is corrupt" message
after repairing RAR5 archive containing a broken recovery record.
Previously such message was issued only by "Test" command
and "Repair" handled most of recovery record damages silently.

22. Bugs fixed:

a) fixed potential security issues when processing corrupt
RAR archives;

b) non-English characters in TAR files with PAX extended headers
were not displayed correctly;

c) "rar x arcname.rar .." command unpacked files to current folder
instead of its parent;

d) pasting files from Windows Explorer to archive opened in WinRAR
blocked further copy and paste operations in Explorer until
archiving was finished;

e) SFX module issued "The specified password is incorrect" message
infinitely not prompting for correct password once a wrong password
was entered;

f) folders time was always set when extracting ZIP archives even if
"File time" options in the extraction dialog were turned off;

g) if "Delete mode: Always" was selected when extracting
and user pressed "Cancel" in the file overwrite or password prompt,
an archive could be deleted even after cancelling extraction
for .zip and .7z formats.

WinRAR 5.60 Beta 2

Version 5.60 beta 2

1. "Extra large buttons" option in "Settings/General" selects
64x48 toolbar buttons.

2. "Restart" option is added to "Advanced/When done" list
in archiving dialog.

3. -ioff4 switch can be used to restart PC after completing archiving
or extraction.

4. Since it may take a lot of time to display contents of large
tar.bz2 and tar.gz files, WinRAR displays the percent complete
in the status bar while opening such archives.

5. Bugs fixed:

a) previous beta did not restore the toolbar layout changed by user.

WinRAR 5.60 Beta 3

Version 5.60 beta 3

1. "Put each file to separate archive" option always appends
the archive format extension to archiving file extension.
So filename.ext is archived to filename.ext.rar
instead of filename.rar.

2. Thicker borders of tree panel and comment window to make their
resizing easier.

WinRAR 5.60 Beta 4

Version 5.60 beta 4

1. WinRAR failed to unpack some ZIP archives compressed with
PPMd algorithm.

2. WinRAR entry in Windows Start menu uses Desktop as a start folder,
so Desktop contents is shown after opening WinRAR. Previously it had
the start folder blank, which resulted in displaying Windows system
files on start.

3. If wrong password was specified for ZIP archive, the previous beta
issued an error message with "OK" button for every encrypted file
even if password was specified with "Set default password" command
or -p<pwd> switch. Now users do not need to press "OK" repeatedly
for globally set wrong ZIP passwords.

WinRAR 5.60 Beta 5

Version 5.60 beta 5

1. WinRAR failed to unpack ZIP archives created by RAR for Android
and encrypted with non-English passwords. Fixed now.
This fix should also work for archives created by other ZIP tools
and utilizing UTF-8 for internal password encoding.

2. Tree panel height was not adjusted after changing the toolbar button
size until restarting WinRAR.

3. If hard link is extracted without extracting the link target,
WinRAR issues a warning and sets the error code after skipping
the link extraction. Previously it was skipped silently.

WinRAR 5.61 beta 1

1. "Delete archive" extraction option deletes all volumes even if user
started extraction from non-first RAR volume, but first volume
is present and all files are unpacked successfully. In such case
previous versions ignored "Delete archive" even if WinRAR was able
to locate the first volume and process the volume set from beginning.

2. Compression ratio bar is not displayed on "Archive" page of
Explorer file properties for archives with encrypted file names.
WinRAR cannot reliably calculate it for such archives without
a password and previously it just displayed 0% here.

3. Bugs fixed:

a) WinRAR displayed "The specified password is incorrect" message
infinitely when attempting to open RAR5 archive with encrypted
file names if wrong global password was set with Ctrl+P;

b) memory management bug in the password dialog could lead to
access to already freed memory followed by crash.
This issue may be also associated with security risks;

c) fixed a crash when processing corrupt RAR archives.
This issue may be also associated with security risks;

d) while starting, WinRAR could cause a brief flickering in menu bars
of few other applications;

e) WinRAR "Find" command matched "String to find" against all
archived files ignoring "File names to find" mask when searching
in CAB archives;

f) SFX module "License" command did not set a title of license window;

g) if "Start-up folder" in WinRAR settings included the trailing
backslash, WinRAR ignored first "Up one level" command.
