What happens instead? Is there an error message, or does nothing happen at all?

i forgot to mention its the newer builds that say break operation crap on my win rar thing and when i download the older 5.0 builds the app can extract them perfectly fine but for some stupid reason the app thinks the files are corrupted or something

I'm not sure what's wrong, but you could try downloading 7-Zip and opening the Dolphin archive with that instead of WinRAR.

That's not really true. It's supposed to be able to extract 7z files as far as I know, though.

The development builds have never "used WinRAR". They're in 7z archives, which is a file format, not a program.

You're not making a lot of sense. 7z is a compression format that can be extracted by WinRAR or 7zip. New or old dev kits should extract exactly the same way using one of the 2 programs to extract them. When you're saying it's not doing what it's supposed to, that isn't explaining anything. What's happening? Error? It's not extracting the files? Everyone else is still able to extract the files using WinRAR or 7zip just fine. So you need to either clarify what you mean, or figure out why it's not working on your end. Otherwise no one can really help you
