    How to convert RAR to ZIP

    Windows, Macs and phones can't open RAR archives without extra software. Converting to ZIP means anyone can open the files with a double-click.

    1. Drop your RAR file into the box above, or add it from a link.
    2. ZIP is already selected. Use the settings button next to it to change size, quality or other options.
    3. Select Convert, then download your ZIP file.

    To do this from your own code, call the FileForge API with "output_format": "zip".
