The command line version, rar.exe also has a graphical interface - for options:
rar /?

Not in 1 EXE.
Use PKUNZIP or INFO-UNZIP (free) and UNRAR (free).
"rar.exe also has a graphical interface"

Why doesn't DOS say something like:

Some of the dos file managers support unpacking archives in DOS. It is worth looking for these.
