in a lot of pieces, each one of 14.3MB.
Do you have any idea if this is bad?, or am I suposed to put it together later?

When its finished click on the first one and it should extract the file from the whole lot
err...it's quite dangerous to assume that the first file is the main file.Quote:

take for example rar r01 r02 (all with the same icon), with rar as the main file.
on windows, the files will be arranged starting from r01 r02...rar. therefore, the first file isn't the main file (the rar file is usually the third).
wat i would suggest is to unhide the file extension first before u do any extraction.

And everytime i've tried it i could just right click any file and go to extract here and it would get the whole file.
