What changes when RAR becomes ZIP
- Files are extracted from the RAR stream, then re-stored into a fresh ZIP with deflate — identical contents, different container.
- ZIP universal support is the point: recipients without RAR tooling can open it anywhere.
- Expect size movement either way — the two compressors optimise differently per file type.

Why Convert RAR to ZIP?
RAR compresses well but needs extra software; ZIP opens everywhere natively. Converting preserves the folder structure and file contents in a universally compatible ZIP, without needing WinRAR.
What is preserved
Folder hierarchy, file names and contents are kept; Unicode names are preserved. Passwords must be provided for encrypted RARs; split RARs need all parts.
