Download RAR 5.50

What's new in this version:

- RAR uses RAR 5.0 archive format by default. You can change it to RAR 4.x compatible format with -ma4 command line switch
- Added support for 1 nanosecond file time precision on Unix platform
- You can specify 'f' charset value in -sc switch to use UTF-8 encoding
- RAR "lt" and "vt" commands display file times with nanosecond precision. Such precision is used in RAR5 archives created by RAR/Unix 5.50. Archives created by Windows RAR version have 100ns file time precision
- Only '+', '-' and '1' precision modifiers are supported in -ts switch now. Use '+' to store the file time with maximum precision, '-' to omit the file time and '1' to store it with 1 second precision. Intermediate precision modes previously defined with '2' and '3' modifiers are not available in RAR 5.0 archive format and ignored by -ts switch
- If a wrong password is entered when unpacking an encrypted file in RAR5 archive, RAR proposes to enter a valid password for same file again instead of aborting extraction

Bugs fixed:
- fixed crashes and security vulnerability when unpacking corrupt RAR archives
- directory owners were not set when extracting RAR5 archives created with -ow switch
- if only creation or only last access file time was stored in RAR5 archive with 1 second precision, such as with -ma5 -tsm- -tsa1 switches, this stored time was ignored when extracting
