WinRAR and GPX
« on: 04 May 2014, 11:36:16 »

There are some GPX files for use with Memory Map and Garmin stuff that I want. They are in RAR format when downloaded.

Is there any free software which will enable me to un RAR them. Is WinRAR any good if I buy it at £27?

WinRAR is a good bit of software, but as Jimbob says, there are freebies that do the same job, maybe not quite as intuitively or as well, but worth trying
