The filename extension used by RAR is .rar for the data volume set and .rev for the recovery volume set. In previous versions, if a RAR-archive was broken into many smaller files (a "multi-volume archive"), then the smaller files used the extensions .rar, .r00, .r01, .r02 etc.

I went through a door before and it was brown.

Brown is a color. Everything has a color.

Good luck!!



The current developer of WinRar is Eugene Roshal, while his brother Alexander Roshal is engaged in running the business behind the software.
