Unraring files on linux

To be able to look at the contents inside a rar file, you need to install the unrar program. To install this program you can use a terminal or the synaptic manager.

Using synaptic.

This is the easiest way. Just open the synaptic packages manager and search for unrar. Select it for installing and apply.

Using a terminal.

Open a terminal and type apt-get install unrar. Maybe you’ll need to add a switch user order at the beginning if not logged as the root user.
