    download and install winrar.

    once installed, select the folder you want to turn into a .rar, right-click -> add to archive. a winrar window should open. make sure "rar" is selected, then hit "ok", and it should zip the folder.

    any program that works on Windows 7, will also work on Windows 8. their file directories are just the same.

    not entirely true. some programs are code base specific.
    windows 7 programs run in "desktop mode" in windows 8.

    sort of like when some programs had to run in XP mode
    some years ago.

    My mistake. I should have specified that. Desktop mode was what I meant

    Perhaps you would like to use a free alternative that's better than WinRar! Try out 7Zip!
