Newbie Forum Discuss, extracted .rar file overwrites .iso file at International Chat: General Topics forum; I have multiple .rar files. I've extracted the first file and it's in .iso format. When trying to extract the rest of the .rar files it wants to overwrite or replace the first extracted file. Should I extract into a different folder each time?

extracted .rar file overwrites .iso file

I have multiple .rar files. I've extracted the first file and it's in .iso format. When trying to extract the rest of the .rar files it wants to overwrite or replace the first extracted file.

Should I extract into a different folder each time?

Re: extracted .rar file overwrites .iso file

When you say you have multiple RAR files, what do you mean. Do you mean they have extensions like .01, .02, .03, etc...

Re: extracted .rar file overwrites .iso file

Are all these multiple .rar files intended to be unrared to one large file when combined? Are you using WinRar?

Re: extracted .rar file overwrites .iso file

Yes to both questions. Sorry I didn't explain it better. When I tried to unrar the 2nd file filename.part02.rar it said the file filename.iso already exists do you want to overwrite it?

This happened with every file and then the program Nero Burning Rom would open..

Just right-click the first file ('.part00' or whatever), and then choose 'Extract here'. It should just do them in sequence and build the whole ISO.
