Files split in .rar files are normally extracted like single .rar files are extracted. No combining or merging process is required.
There could be 3 causes of the error:
1) Sometimes the program you use to extract it (WinRAR / 7zip) gets sortof "disturbed" during the extracting process. Try extracting it again, this time don't do anything in the computer that requires too much loading.
2) Part/s of the .rar file is damaged, so file could not be extracted properly. Try redownloading the corrupted .rar part/s.
3) The .rar part/s could be corrupted from the very beginning. You'll have to ask the source of that file to reupload it if possible.
4) All the .rar parts must have the same filename, else it won't be able to recognize the part next to the first part. WinRAR has a new and old style of naming, so I'll provide both in the example (including the file extensions):
new:
movie.part1.rar
movie.part2.rar
movie.part3.rar
old: (the first part has the .rar extension, the rest have numbered extension)
movie.rar
movie.r00
movie.r01
It will be of big help in troubleshooting if you could provide what the error says.
A .rar report is a type of compressed zip folder. that is merely like .zip, excepts that is a various business enterprise that made it i think, plus a .rar has yet another characteristic it incredibly is very accessible. it may ruin a report down into smaller products, so as that they could be emailed as an instance, then you recombine them and the report is high quality. you want the Rar programme to unzip or recombine the archives. whilst uncertain what utility is I many times recommend doing a Google seek as there continuously somebody available who has asked an identical question your asking and you're able to get an instantaneous answer. =)
Just click on nameofmovie.rar, the other parts, nameofmovie.r01, nameofmovie.02, et cetera, will open and extract automatically.
You must be using WinRar.
