WinRAR Compressed Windows Drive
Compressed my C: drive with WinRAR to save space. How do I unzip it from the BIOS? My 500GB SSD was getting completely full I know you can compress files to save space, so I just right-clicked the entire "C:\Windows" folder, selected "Add to archive" and set it to maximum compression. It took like three hours, but it saved me 40GB! The problem is, I restarted my PC and now it just gives me a black screen with a flashing cursor. Since Windows is zipped up, how do I open WinRAR from the motherboard BIOS to extract it so it can boot?
A Reddit troubleshooting post claims that the user compressed the entire Windows folder with WinRAR and then cannot boot the computer. The absurd punchline is the request to launch WinRAR from the motherboard BIOS to unzip Windows, prompting a shocked reaction GIF.
