Help WinRAR causing computer to freeze


Question

Let me start by saying I have three harddrives. A 40gb, a 60gb, and a 200gb.

Whenever I extract something that's larger than 100mb on my 40 and 200gb hdds, my computer freezes. The Task Manager doesn't open and I have to manually restart. However, files extract fine on my 60gb hdd. This problem only started a few weeks ago. I have tried different versions of WinRAR. I've also tried different extracting programs like Winace, IZarc, and PowerArchiver.

What can I do?

    • No, it doesn't, but I'm sure you don't just mean compile when you say compile.
    • Wine is a translation layer, not an emulator. And there are many cases where performance is worse or BETTER under Proton, it really depends on the game in question.

    • Give me an example of Microsoft "don't like something from you" so "you simply get locked down"? I am all for government using Linux and open source software but no need to make stuff up.
    • Because some people don't think before embracing a new technology.
