Hiya,
My son has a download that he needs me to decompress which I can deal with usually but in this case it is a split rar (I think). The files are one *.rar, one *.sfv, one *.nfo and 72 *.rxx files from *.r00 to *.r71.
I normally use Quickzip to deal with rar files but have no idea how to do this.
All advice welcome.
Cheers.

Hi Mark,
I believe if you put them all in the same folder and unzip the first one (the .rar) , it should do the lot.

winrar will knock it on the head in one go.
install winrar, copy all the files into one place then select the first one
you may have to manually tell winrar that its a spanning archive if you dont register it.

Yeah, right click on a mac, or on a PC try 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/). I haven't used it but one of my guys at work did and he said it was good :)
