Well if its an Amiga DOS disk LHA will compact the files where ADF will make an image of the Disk so a LHA will probably be smaller than the ADF making it
1 - easier to download
2 - easier to transfer from PC to Amiga
3 - easier to unpack on an Amiga.

Also the files might run of Harddisk so it would be more pointless to transfer the files to floppy (or fake floppy) and then have to drag them from disk to harddisk when you can simply unlha them to a location of your choice.

NonDos Disks are unlikely to be LHA in the first place

Your question is more or less saying "Why have Zips when we have ISO's"

too easy

i used winrar -which unpacked the files

from that to adf, would it be bootable - letalone the issue of pc drive to amiga drive issues

I dont know understand what you are trying to do with this LHA.
Do you want it as an ADF to run on WINUAE or do you want it on a floppy disk to run on a real amiga.

If its the Amiga option what is your amiga setup

ie do you have a harddrive is it 500 600 or 1200 or other

Wow reading this back and I realise Im drunk Woopee for friday night

@minuous bit harsh

@devicenet unlha the files to a folder and if you cant see them use rmb and show all files
