How do you open and run a 7-zip file?
Go to the directory of the .rar file. Then choose the .rar file and click "Extract". Then click "OK" to extract to the same directory as the .rar file, or press the button that says "..." to choose the directory. Then click OK. The file/files should extract in that directory, and you'll be able to open them with whatever program that fits their file extension. E.g. a .jpg file can be opened in paint, and an .mp3 can be opened in Realplayer. There are 2 easy ways to do this. 1- right click on the file you want to open, and select 'open with'. Then, when it asks you what program you want to use, select '7zip'. 2- open 7zip, go to 'tools-> options' (at the top of the 7zip window), find the 'System' tab (it should open on this automatically) and then 'associate 7 zip with'- select .rar. I personally use 7zip to open all archived file type, so I pick 'select all', but you may, or may not want to do this.
