With 7zip, you nutsack.

7zip is free winrar
https://www.7-zip.org/download.html
You likely want the first one in the third category (7-Zip 23.01 (2023-06-20) for 64-bit windows x64)
It's by far the most common archiving software gamers use besides winrar because it does the same thing and handles the exact same formats but it's free.

Since it also sounds like you might not know how to use archiving software, after installing it simply adds a 7zip context option to the right click menu. Right click the zipped folder, go to 7zip's options, and "extract to (folder name)"

Do not use extract here unless you want the files dumped where the folder is, instead of in a new folder.

Yeah, aka the best archive container around. Install NanaZip from Microsoft Store, which is a fork of 7zip. It'll add a user-friendly context menu entry (that one which appears when you right click on files) to open the file through NanaZip. You're also greatly encouraged to open every other archive extension through 7zip/NanaZip, possibly even .zip, because the native Windows archiver is shit.
