Windows to Support RAR, gz, 7z, and Other Archives Natively.

Microsoft is adding built-in support for RAR, 7-zip, .tar, and other archive types to Windows, beyond the current support for .zip files. The feature will be especially useful for developers and users of the Windows Subsystem for Linux. The support will be handled by the open source libarchive project, and will likely match the list of file types on libarchive's GitHub page. The feature will be added to a "work-in-progress" build later this week, and may be exclusive to Windows Insider preview builds before rolling out to the general public.
