Closed The rar archive does not open

[bannon]

I downloaded from Internet a rar archive with a file I need and when I want to open it I get a message that this rar archive is corrupted. What can be the reason? how could it be that in the Internet site initially, the file was corrupted? Can you suggest to me please how to fix corrupt RAR files?

Generally speaking , it’s much better to re-download the file. If that doesn’t work

You can try this:
1)Open the WinRAR application. Click on “File” and then “Open Archive” and browse to the damaged RAR file.
2)Press “Alt” + “R” on your keyboard. This will bring up the WinRAR repair dialog screen.
3)Designate an easy-to-find location in the “Folder to put the repaired archive” box.
4)Check the box that says, “Treat the corrupt archive as RAR.”
5)Press the “OK” button. Once it has finished repairing, a new archive will be built and placed in the location you designated.

There are lots of programs that allow you to do .rar recovery. If you still want to use the program, I can say that this is one of the best RAR Recovery Toolbox. You can use the demo version and test this program on efficiency. You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now.
