youre not doing the iso creation right or it wouldnt be a rar file
qwix cannot create rar files
what you may be doing is having the winrar prog or whatever u use, set to open that type of file
when you have qwix remember that you need to create the iso from the CONENTS of a folder, in other words the folder needs to be unzipped first (or the rar file whatever it is)
then you create the iso from the contents, if its an xbox backup games, youll see a default.xbe in there

It's fine.

Just because it has the WinRAR icon doesn't make it a WinRAR archive.

What I'm saying is that WinRAR automatically designed to handle ISO files, which means that your system will recognize it as a WinRAR archive, but you shouldn't be able to access (which is good, it means the ISO you made is valid).

Now, go to your burning program, and BURN that ISO :)

Maybe. It depends on what kind of DVD-ROM drive your xbox has.
