It already does and you already can if you're the 1% (Yes it probably is that low) who knows what rar is and how to install the software. But after this you can also send a 7z/RAR file to your grandparents and know they'll be able to open it without also becoming 7zip tech support.

Your grandparents aren't going to be running Windows 11 23H2.

Hell, I kept my parents on Windows 10 and intend to keep them on it for as long as possible. Too many headaches and calls asking why "things are different now" otherwise.

I knew a programmer who couldnt do this. Yes, couldn't open a 7zip file.
