Default Winrar Problem
I'm having problems extracting an xbox game .rar file. The first extraction works fine. It extracts the file to about 40 seperate .00 files. Before i would just right click one of those files and "extract to.." and that would extract all the files into one .iso file. Now WinRAR wont extract any of those files. Also the files dont have the WinRAR logo any more, they just show up as unknown file types. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing WinRAR aswell as installing other versions of WinRAR and still no difference. Could someone please help me out?

Thanks

Hello Illastic,

are you extracting ROM files? meaning you are trying to play full xbox games on your PC or are you extracting Saved game files to play on your Xbox?

Its an "xbox game rar file" not a saved game file. I will be playing the game on my xbox not my pc. I don't see how what i will be doing with the extracted file(s) is relevant anyway.
