winRAR vs. winZip

[foodbiz]

I am doing loading a zip file! it downloads fine, however when I unpack it using winRAR , the files are unpacked and not installed.

When I used to use winZip I would get a window asking me if I would like to install the program...

How can I install the files/program I just unzipped using winRAR...???

Click on the setup.exe (or similar) in the unzipped file folder.

whats the different between the two of it?

Win Rar makes Win Rar Files and Win Zip makes Win Zip Files

I'm thinking that WinZip is just set to run Setup.exe after unpacking, so just do what Atomic Rooster said. look for Setup.exe and clickety-click!

Winrar can also compress to zip.
When you use winrar, it doesn't automatically ask you to install a program. But I think it also recognizes to normal 'setup.exe' routine, thus, if you doubleclick 'setup.exe' inside the archive it will decompress the contents to a temporary folder and run the installation.

I, though, have bad experiences of that. It should, but doesn't always, delete the temporary files after finishing.
