Default .rar files

Hello all. I'm having trouble getting the .rar file themes to Reaper. Can someone please explain how you load them? I don't have any trouble with the .zip files, just the .rar files. (my music computer is offline so I use a usb drive to transport them) Thanks.

Hey, hope this will help.
Download Winrar, and install it.
Double click on the rar file you want to install and go to extract to. Find your Reaper folder in your programs and open it. Extract to Color Themes and your done!

WinRAR is shareware, it will nag and nag and I think it might even expire after a certain number of days. Let me recommend 7zip, it's a multi-format compression utility which is freeware. It's nice because it loads right into your Windows shell so you can just right click a file and choose your extraction options (WinRAR does this too actually, but I think 7zip covers more formats; it's more than just a RAR utility, it's a tool for almost any form of file compression).

Once you extract it, follow the instructions per keys61 to get stuff into the correct folder(s).

WinRar works, but I use 7Zip, very nice www.7-zip.org.
