Surreality Guest how do i do this? it’s a .rar file, and when i open it there’s a bunch of files: the first one is a folder and it has two periods as the title, the rest are .rar, .r00, .r01, al the way up to .r99, and then it changes to .s00, up to .s47. when i try to extract the first .rar file, it says 'enter password for the encrypted file'.

In the old days rar files that were split were named .rar .r00 .r01 .r02 etc. Later rarlabs redid winrar so the files would be named .part1.rar .part2.rar .part3.rar etc.. (if the last one was .part10.rar, the first would go .part01.rar , if it was .part100.rar it’d be part001.rar etc...) Anyway it looks like whoever made this put a bunch of rar files within a larger one, but the inside one was encrypted. You can’t do much without someone giving you the password.
