egbertjan Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 I am looking for Winrar 3.8 Dutch version for my old Windows 95 PC This is the last version that works under Windows 95. the file is called wrar380nl.exe. I have a license. Who can help me with this file.
Tripredacus Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 It seems to only be located on torrents and mega. Wayback has only the 404 page archived from rarlab's official site. You can try to ask on this forum, see if anyone has a copy laying around somewhere: https://www.helpmij.nl/forum/index.php
jumper Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) Archived localization begins with: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar393nl.exe Non localized version 3.93: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar393.exe Non localized version 3.8: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar380.exe Perhaps someone can compare the language resources of the first two and apply the differences to the third to create an unofficial wrar380nl.exe. V 3.80 is also the last for Win98, but WinME might run up through 4.01. Perhaps v3.93 or later can be hexed to run on Win9x. Edit: v3.93 seems to be working well in Win98se without any help from KernelEx. DW had no complaints, not even a warning. It still needs to be tested in Win95. Edited September 12, 2019 by jumper v3.93 tested in Win98se
jaclaz Posted September 12, 2019 Posted September 12, 2019 (edited) 2 hours ago, jumper said: Archived localization begins with: ftp://ftp.rarlab.com/rar/wrar393nl.exe Yes and no, meaning that - for whatever reasons - that is the first localized version that survived, a NL 3.80 version actually existed: https://web.archive.org/web/20090228151900/http://www.winrar.nl/ https://web.archive.org/web/20081216004617/http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm And, as Trip stated the Wayback Machine didn't archive the file. I wonder if plainly asking winrar.nl via info@winrar.nl for a copy wouldn't be feasible. jaclaz Edited September 12, 2019 by jaclaz
antiproton Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 Found it on my old Windows 98 computer. I collected it in a few other languages as well. German, Spanish, Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. wrar380nl.exe
creopard Posted September 18, 2019 Posted September 18, 2019 Would you also share your German 3.80 version of Winrar?
VistaLover Posted September 19, 2019 Posted September 19, 2019 ... And if anyone's in need of it, the Greek installer for WinRar 3.80 (x86): wrar380el.exe (originally saved in this old Vista laptop on June 3rd 2009 ; however, its modification timestamp dates to Oct 7th 2008! )
LoneCrusader Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 WinRAR 3.93 is the last version with official 98-ME support. It's been a long time since I visited this issue, but IIRC, the installers for 3.93 and down to somewhere in the 3.7x range (this seems to be very close to what the OP said about 3.80, so all 3.7x builds may work) crash when run under 95. The program itself MAY still work under 95 up to 3.93 IF the unpacking and installation process were done manually, but I never tested this.
