Like other archives, RAR files are data containers, they store one or several files in the compressed form. After you downloaded RAR file from Internet, you need to unpack its contents in order to use it.
after downloading RAR acrchive on my Desktop, went to unpack it with unrar-free .
unrar-free failed to extract .rar archives. Was thought may RAR archive got corrupted. In that way tried to unpack many RAR archives and failed to do so.
Finally a unrar worked.
here goes steps to unpack RAR with unrar
Install unrar using apt-get
#apt-get install unrar
Test Archives
#unrar t compressfiles.rar
Extract files to current directory
#unrar e compressfiles.rar
