Automatically delete compressed files after decompressing with WinRAR

Deleting the compressed file after decompressing is done will help you free up hard disk space, because the compressed files after decompression are no longer used.
However, there are a few compressed files that you have to use over and over again so be cautious when using this feature. This is a default feature of WinRAR so you have to use WinRAR to do it, and 7-Zip software I have not tried.
Perform:
+ Step 1: First, open the file you need to extract using the WinRAR software installed on your computer, whichever version you want, but we recommend using the latest version of WinRAR to avoid security holes.
There are many ways for you to open any compressed file with WinRAR, such as double-clicking on the archive, or alternatively you can right-click on the file and select Extract files… or Open with WinRAR okay.

+ Step 2: Next, in this window of WinRAR you click Extract To (Unzip to) to open WinRAR's extraction options window.

If you open WinRAR by selecting Extract Files ... above, you don't need to do this step anymore because it's open for you already.

+ Step 3: Switches to the tab Advanced in the window Extraction path and options, look down you can easily see the item Delete Archive - Delete compressed file with 3 options including:

Never (selected by default): Do not delete, ie retain the compressed file after decompression is complete.
Ask for confirmation: You will be asked if you delete or not after unpacking => I think you should choose this one !
Always: After decompressing, delete it without asking much.

You should note that the wrong setting can lose the compressed file. When finished, click OK to agree and start the process of unzipping the file.
