Answer #1
More specificity pl0x.
Answer #2
.rar files don’t open with winzip
they open with winrar, search ‘winrar’ on warez-bb
or go to rarlabs.com to get the demo version
Answer #3
okay here is what it says when i try to open it.
please insert disk containing
“users\yacniel\desktop\rzr-skrm.part3.rar”
Answer #4
lol trying to get skyrim to work, nice.
what it’s saying is, it’s trying to find ‘rzr-skrm.part3.rar’
so either you haven’t downloaded it, or it’s in another directory on your computer
find it, then try to unrar it again
make sense?
Answer #5
You can’t unrar .rar files with WinZIP. With WinZIP you can only unzip .zip files. You have to download WinRAR to unrar .rar files. Download it from here:

Answer #7
lol yacniel, I told you that earlier.
.rar files don't open with winzip
they open with winrar, search 'winrar' on warez-bb
or go to rarlabs.com to get the demo version
you could have saved yourself a lot of trouble if you had read all replies.
looks like this is solved anyways, so I’m not watching this topic anymore.
good luck

maybe I should have said, winrar can open winzip files
Answer #10
yea, nah. I’ve never used winzip for .rar files. it even sounds stupid
maybe winzip has that functionality now, but it never used to, I haven’t heard about it, .rar files are everywhere and winrar does the majority of the archiving files anyway, including .zip and .7z
I wouldn’t be listening to that friend anymore, yanciel.
