WINRAR functionality limited.
When right clicking on RAR file and selecting extract nothing happens. However double clicking and opening then extracting works.

You need a newer version of WinRAR.

BTW, avoid the Nero 7 like the plague, I've just discovered one of its components screws up the taskbar (feedback from MS). Heck, the burning software itself doesn't even work that great in Vista ... :no

WinRAR 3.51 and newer versions run fine and Nero 7 has always worked good for me, but then I've never installed Nero Home or the search bar it wants to install. I guess it's the search bar that messes with the Task Bar

I have Nero installed with all the bull but without Nero Home. Works fine but I had to upgrade to build 7.10.1.0.

Same here,
I unchecked?/ dumped/removed the Nero scout as my prime removal choice.
