Apparently I can't figure this out. Trying to download from the ASUS site I had no program that would open the support files for xonar essence. I loaded some program called winRAR which did download the files. However I know see that this is not freeware and I must purchase the program after 40 days.
I thought this was a zip file but I can't get a simple free zip program to open these files. I don't know what a RAR file is and I am not needing to pay for this program just to open a pdf manual or driver upgrade from ASUS. Their website leaves a lot to be desired as for communication regarding downloads for such a larger maker of mbs and cards for pcs, perhaps I am just not on the education level they expect people to be on technology?
What am I not understanding as I remove the winRAR program from my pc.
Thanks.
 
WinRAR will function past the 40days, and simply ask you to buy it every time you open it (At least the version from a year ago does this), so don't worry about it too much. .rar's are like zips, just a tad more optimized.
 
7-zip is free. Do a search and you will find it quickly. Opens everything I have thrown at it.

It handles rar, zip, ace, etc.
