Okay but 7zip can open and create .rar archives so why would anyone ever use WinRAR
Don't try to understand memesters. I once installed one 7zip instead of WinRAR, and he installed the latter because "it's free, you just have to click the button and wait a little bit". It was even worse with the uTorrent vs. qBitTorrent situation, where the former is a de-facto spyware/adware, but the latter isn't in piracy memes.
