preprardir doesn't support WinRAR >5.40

[Former user]

preprardir fails with the following error when trying to extract a RAR executable that's newer than 5.40 (i. e. starting with 5.50b1):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "preprardir.py", line 283, in <module>
  File "preprardir.py", line 67, in main
  File "preprardir.py", line 124, in extract_rarbin
  File "preprardir.py", line 180, in get_rar_date_name
  File "F:\pyReScene\rescene\rar.py", line 1447, in __init__
ValueError: The file is not a valid .rar archive or .srr file.

Happens on both pyReScene 0.6.1 and the still fresh version 0.7

You can extract the EXE and rename it manually. In cmd, for example:

"%ProgramFiles%\WinRAR\Rar.exe" x "winrar-x64-550.exe" "Rar.exe" "."
for /f "usebackq" %d in (`powershell "(get-item \"Rar.exe\").lastWriteTime.toString(\"yyyy-MM-dd\")"`) do ( ren "Rar.exe" "%d_rar550.exe" )
rem
