First you run the winrar installation program. Then usually you should be able to double-click rar files and open them to see what’s inside. [Most] people will instead right-click the rar file and choose extract to [folder-name]. That’s probably the most expedient way of extracting the contents.

P.S: If you didn’t install winrar correctly right clicking may not be available (that’s unlikely, since the shell extension installs by default). If that’s the case, find winrar on your start menu and run it. Then click option, settings, go to the integration tab, and make sure integrate winrar into shell is checked.
