bjornk 481 Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Share Can't open any of the archives with Winrar, 7zip doesn't work either. I get an "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged" error. Downloaded Kendo_2's_Type3_Body_Pack.rar to find out if it's a problem on my side and I was able to open it. Have you changed Winrar's compression algorithm or something?

Kendo 2 2,630 Posted December 15, 2018 Share No, I haven't changed anything. I'll download the files and see if I can open them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works on your end because you are the one who compressed it. I've also tried downloading them with VPN and got the same result. My Winrar and 7zip versions cannot open that archive for some reason. Is there any other file here compressed with the same version of Winrar? Have you updated your Winrar since you posted the Type3 Body Pack above? Edited December 15, 2018 by bjornk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornk 481 Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Share Can't open that either. Do you have 7zip? May I see the compression parameters screen in Winrar? Edited December 15, 2018 by bjornk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjornk 481 Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Share For some reason the download speed is really slow for the 3rd file, it's about 15 KB/sec. I keep canceling it and restarting. The other two open fine. Both Winrar and 7zip can open them. Still waiting for the 3rd file to finish. Edit: Okay, all fine now. I can open all 3 files without any problem.

bjornk 481 Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) Share If you look at the file header in a HEX editor you'll notice the signature of 52 61 72 21 1A 07 01, which shows that these are RAR5 files (newer RAR format). While Kendo_2's_Type3_Body_Pack.rar has a different signature, 52 61 72 21 1A 07 00, which is RAR4 or older. So there WAS a change at some point. I have a registered version of Winrar 4.20 which I've been using for years, and it obviously doesn't support RAR5 format, which was the problem here. If there's an option to use RAR4 file format or legacy versions I'd suggest using it to make the archives more compatible. Or just compress them as 7z. https://www.ghacks.net/2013/04/29/winrar-5-0-introduces-the-new-rar-5-format-what-you-need-to-know/ Also: "7-Zip 9.20 supports RAR 2/3/4 formats only and doesn't support RAR5 archives. But latest versions of 7-Zip supports RAR5 archives." That's why I couldn't open them with version 9.20.
