Installing Final Burner
This section describes a tutorial on how to compress files with WinRAR to archive them on a data CD.
FinalBurner is free CD burning software produced by ProtectedSoft. Since I don't have other CD burning software on my system, I want to install FinalBurner and try it.
1. Go to http://www.protectedsoft.com/download.php. A list of download item shows up.
2. Click on the "Download now!" icon next to "FinalBurner FREE - 1.22.0.111 - 8 MB". Save the download file to: C:\temp\fb_free.exe.
3. Run C:\temp\fb_free.exe to install FinalBurner with its default settings.
4. Click Start > All Programs > FinalBurner > FinalBurner. The "FinalBurner FREE" window shows up. A list of project types is displayed to let you start a specific task supported by FinalBurner like "Data CD/DVD", "Audio/CD", "Video DVD", "Burn .ISO", or "AudioCD Ripper".
If all functions listed here work, it is a good tool to have on your system.
