Hi, everybody. Im having some issues trying to open rar files. I usually open them with 7-zip (windows), but some cannot be opened. Could you please help me? Thanks

Note to pitussa - that has not been my experience.  If I miss the 7 day window Ive had to pay again but perhaps it was during a time when the site itself was having trouble.  I know Ive paid more than once for the same patterns though since my machine crashed while I was in the hospital.

Does 7zip give an error when trying to open these files.........they may be incomplete or corrupt.   The software usually shows which files are corrupt and why it cant open them.

Thanks, according to 7zip all the 6 parts of a magazine have an error. Its really dissappointing. I spent a lot of coins and nothing can be seen... Could any of moderators or anyone check it? Im ref  Details Reply Post time 2018-12-9 04:29

I always use Winrar and never had a problem. You can also open zip files with it. You can try it, you can download and install it for free. Download it from the winrar site.  Details Reply Post time 2018-12-11 11:40

Perhaps a hiccup happened when you were downloading your files.

AFAIK they remain free forever, I would swear I have been able to re-download files that I paid for months ago without paying again. Where did you get that info from? (Curious!)  Details Reply Post time 2018-12-9 19:22

I didnt know that I wouldnt be charged again for downloading the same files, thanks for the information. Nevertheless, I downloaded all the files once again and still cant open them. Ill try with another program, maybe thats the solution.

Try downloading them one by one, one at a time, making sure the downloaded file looks like this: name_1.rar (change 1 for each files numbering sequence). Maybe right clicking and "save as", providing  Details Reply Post time 2018-12-11 04:33
