Winrar error

**okeee** · 06-09-2007, 05:38 PM

I tried to unpack a .rar-file, [file].rar .. en this error appeared:

! E:\Mijn doc\[file]: CRC failed in [file] The file is corrupt
! E:\Mijn doc\[file].rar: Unexpected end of archive

What is this error and how could I fix this?

Try another program to extract them it is a freeware program called Tugzip, and can extract .Rar files.
Here is the link Click here

I tried it, and it did the same as winrar. After a few seconds of unpacking, it suddenly stops.

Ok, when you download the .Rar file did you get all of it?

**okeee** · 06-10-2007, 03:06 AM

yes I have the whole file.

**Go The Power** · 06-10-2007, 03:09 AM

It is saying that the file is corrupt, how big is the file? and where did you get it from?

Have you tried re-downloading it?

The file is about 4 gb. The filename was in Japanese characters, so I tried changing the karakters to roman letters, but that didn't work out either.

What does this have to do with networking?

Well, this is the only section for applications, so this seemed the most useful. I couldn't find another section for applications.

Proberly the Microsoft forum would have been better. Never mind.
Have you solved the problem?

**okeee** · 06-20-2007, 06:33 PM

Yes, the file was not completely configured.
