I am trying to unpack a file I downloaded (WinRAR) which is in an iso format. I downloaded MagicISO to help, and it doesn't recognize the file as an ISO. Any idea what to do?
Thanks

if it's download.iso.rar, then you need to unpack it using WniRAR and then use a burning program to write it to disc (CD). That's what an iso is for. You can also mount it to a virtual drive using a program like Alcohol. I'm not familiar with MagicISO.

Alright i'm lost. I downloaded WinRAR as an iso, so I then downloaded MagicISO to unpack and convert it. Will that program will not recognize the iso that is WinRAR.

an iso is a cd image. you dont unpack it, you BURN IT to a cd.

And we aren't going to help you use the illegal software you are trying to get. WinRAR doesn't even legally come in an iso format.
