An LHARC compressed archive file is integrated with compression specifications used in the LHA file format. These compression specifications are implemented by the LHARC compression algorithm, and encoding standards used for these LHA files affix these compressed files with the .lha extension. A file can be compressed using LHARC compression specifications to reduce the size of the file, and a group of files can also be compressed and saved as one LHA file using this compression algorithm. Amiga computers were implemented support for the LHARC compression algorithm and the LHA format, and a wide variety of video games developed for Amiga machines used the LHA file format and the LHARC compression specifications. An LHA file was used by these old video games for the distribution packages of the software products. The Doom video game program is an example of a video game application designed with compatibility support for Amiga computers that used LHA files. Some software products in Japan still use the LHARC file compression algorithm and the LHA file format.how to open a .lha file?

Be careful not to rename the extension on .lha files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .lha. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.leave a comment
