you don't need winrar, 7zip is far better.

can 7-zip reassemble those split rar files where you get r01, r02 and so on?
Yep. I just ran across one of those .rars the other day and was surprised that it wouldn't decompress properly. Then I realized I hadn't tried to unzip one of those on that particular computer in a long time and my version of 7zip was just really out of date. Updated to the current version and it worked fine.
You don't need 7zip, it's much better to unpack manually.
