By creating archived folders, you can free up a lot of free space on your hard drive. To write large files to various drives, they usually create multivolume archives.
Necessary
- - 7-zip;
- - WinRar.
Instructions
Step 1
To work with archives, you must use certain programs. If you are working with a.rar archive, download and install the WinRar utility. For.zip and.7z files, use the 7-zip program. Download the selected program from the site https://www.win-rar.ru/download/winrar/ or https://www.7-zip.org/download.html. Be sure to select the exact version that is intended to be installed on the operating system you are using.
Step 2
After completing the installation of the program, restart your computer. Open Windows Explorer. Copy all the elements of the archive to an arbitrary folder. Remember that absolutely all parts of a multivolume archive must be located in this directory.
Step 3
Now double click on the first archive volume. This file must be assigned a double type, for example.zip.001. After performing these operations, a window will appear with the inscription "Collect" archive name "and all other parts in the directory. Select the folder where the compiled archive will be placed. Click the Ok button and wait for the execution of the running procedure.
Step 4
Open the specified folder and locate the target archive file. Click on it with the right mouse button and select "Unpack". Select the folder where the archive files will be unpacked. In the "Overwrite" menu, check the box next to "With confirmation". Enter the password if the archive has been protected. Click the Ok button and wait until the files are unpacked.
Step 5
Open the specified folder and make sure that all data has been successfully unpacked. To work with multivolume archives without using these utilities, use the Total Commander program. It should be noted that older versions of this utility may not support the relatively new 7z type.
