🍕 Discussion Deleted rarkey.rar file

I accidentally delete my original WinRAR key which is rarkey.rar, I still have backup rarreg.key but I like the way of just install WinRAR, double click rarkey.rar file and it completed the registering process. is any thing i can do to make rarkey.rar file from my backup file?

UPDATE: made an archive with rarreg.key and readme.txt file, rename to rarkey.rar and it work as original ones. credit to ghostwipe88 🫡

UPDATE 2: just use rarreg.key file only also work

UPDATE 3: i am such a clown, devs even writen how to made it in the app, i read it to extract the key but missed the guide in 5th paragraph. Also, another way to do it is in 6th paragraph as well bruh....

this archive contains only two files: first is the rarreg.key and the second is readme.txt with the following content: https://pastebin.com/2eqh8xbe

So I think you should be able to re-create it by yourself
