extracting RAR files on Ubuntu 20.10,Ubuntu LTS also on Fedora 33 not working

Question

I decided to leave Windows and jump in to the Linux, but when I install Ubuntu LTS 20.04 and want to extract RAR, with Archive Manager it stays in (Extracting files from "site.rar [86mg] ") please wait !!! And nothing else. I try it on Fedora too! asus-k55vd intel i5

To enable full support for other major archive formats, you must install a few extra apps: sudo apt install zip unzip rar unrar p7zip-full — Pablo Bianchi, Mar 09 '21 at 22:07
