The abbreviation of the RAR file format is Roshal Archive Compressed and it is a compressed archive created by WinRAR. Typically, an archive contains multiple files, but it can also be just a single file. To use the files, you need to extract them from the archive.

WinRAR

WinRAR is a shareware software designed by Evgenij Lazarevič Rošal that allows you to create and modify RAR archives (files with the extension .rar) using a proprietary compression algorithm. It is one of the few apps that possess this functionality.

To transfer your books from Kobo to Kindle, follow these steps:

  2. Create a folder on your desktop.
  3. Move the eBooks you want to transfer to the Kobo into the folder using the mouse.

No, unfortunately, it is not possible because the Kindle format differs from the Kobo format. There are some applications that can convert Kindle format to Kobo, but I’m not sure if they work. You can purchase Kobo eBooks directly from the company’s website or from retailers like La Feltrinelli or Mondadori.
