You don't have to use winrar to open your jar files, you can use winzip which is much simpler to use. In order to use winzip, either rename the jar file extension to '.zip' then just click it or else right-click it, choose 'Open With...', then 'Choose Program'. Find WinZip in the pop-up list and remember to check the 'Always use the selected program...' checkbox.
If you extract your jar files to a folder, recreating a jar file with winzip is just as easy. Select the folder, compress it with Winzip, then simply rename it to '.jar'

WinRAR is a 32-bit version of RAR, the powerful archive manager. RAR files can normally compress files up to 10 percent more than ZIP or ARJ files.
WinRAR is a powerful archiver. WinRAR provides complete support of RAR and ZIP files, unpacks 7Z, ACE, ARJ, BZ2, GZ, CAB, ISO, JAR, TAR, LZH, UUE, Z. Among WinRAR features are strong compression, volumes, encryption, self-extracting modules, backup facilities.
Features include strong compression, processing of non-RAR archives (such as ZIP, ARJ, and LZH), long filename support, programmable self-extracting archives (SFX), volumes, damaged archive repair, authenticity verification, embedded file comments, and encryption.
New features include added extraction only support of BZIP2, JAR (Java ARchive) and ACE 2.0 formats, the possibility to use full file paths such as d:pathname in the exclude lists and -x switch when archiving, option "Append archive name to path" in the "Settings/Compression" dialog, new 'E' parameter for -ag switch denotes a day of year and processing of more archive formats (TAR, GZ, ACE, UUE, CAB, ARJ, and LZH archives).
