Now this a strange situation.
I seem to have a problem with extracting some (I'd say 70%) of RAR files I download from the internet. I have tried different software (WinRAR/7-zip/FreeArc) to no avail.
With WinRAR I get the error "The archive is either in unknown format or damaged"
With 7-zip I get the error "Can not open file as archive".
With FreeArc I get the error "ERROR: File isn't archive or this archive is corrupt: archive signature not found at the end of archive. Please recover it using 'r' command or use -tp- option to ignore Recovery Record"
I understand some RAR files can be corrupted during download but this is not the case as I have tried opening the same RAR file on another PC and it extracts absolutely fine. The problem seems to be exclusive to my PC and I can't figure what is wrong. Maybe something in my registry?
Running Windows 10.
