Partially repairing broken rars with incomplete pars
(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)Posted by: ShareIt
Is it possible--and how--to partially repair rar files with missing par blocks? I know that WinRar has a feature to "repair damaged archive," but haven't seen the same/similar feature in quickpar. Is there another program that could do this, or is it a hidden feature?

You want to recover the recovery files?? You can't do that.
I think you need a better usenet server which has better completion.

LOL! No, what I'd like to do is repair whatever I can from the existing par files, but quickpar tells me I need more. Any way to override that (yes I know I will still have some broken rar files)?
As for getting a better service provider; I seldom wait that long but this was a request from a friend so no biggie! :D

Oh.. No you can't partially recover a rar set. You need the minimum amount of blocks otherwise you don't have enough data to repair.
