WinRar problems (extracting .7z files)?

Question

It's a simple problem I think. Unfortunately, I'm terrible with mods, so I'm having issues. I basically cannot extract files (TESIV:O mods) to ANY folders. It puts an error for EVERY FILE in the diagnostics page saying it can't open said file. I've checked the internet for fixes but nothing comes up. I turned off all firewalls and redownloaded files from different mirrors to guarantee they weren't corrupt. I have Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit). Can anyone help me? :-(

Answer 1

If it's a .7z try using 7-Zip, a free utility which was most probably used to compress the file in the first place:



http://www.7-zip.org/

Answer 2

Winrar 7z

Answer 3

The new WinRAR can extract .7z files so that cant be a problem. Possibly since your in x64 bit using x32bit software some parts of WinRAR aren't compatible.

The best program to decompress files is Winrar, you can unzip all kind of files!(.zip, .rar, .7z, .iso, .tar, .jar, .cab, .gz, .ace, .uue, .bz2, etc...)
