Support and Feedback / Problem with RAR archives
« on: September 30, 2016, 12:14:42 »
Hi,
I am having problems unpacking some RAR files with build 2265 x64 (could be the same in earlier builds). It seems that RAR archives packed in Unix/Linux are problematic, particularly folders, which appear either as 0 bytes files or passworded (they are not).
I use Windows 10, but these files are increasingly common on the Web when servers pack files on the fly. They unpack fine with WinRAR and other programs. Unpacking and re-packing the files in Windows does not reproduce the problem, so it seems that the issue is in how files are indexed inside the RAR.
Here is an example (free files from Project Gutenberg):

Can you have a look? It is the only problem nagging me so far in an otherwise excellent program. Thanks!
