WinRAR is a trialware. During the evaluation period, you can use all functions in it. To fix RAR files with WinRAR:

- Select the corrupt RAR archive to be repaired.
- Click Tools > Repair archive.
- In the pop-up dialog box, select the folder to put the repaired archive and choose Treat the corrupt archive as RAR.

What is a CRC error? Can your tool fix such errors?
Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) is an algorithm that can be used to detect changes in data. In a RAR archive, when a file item is archived into it, other than the compressed file data, the CRC value of the uncompressed file data is also calculated and stored together. Thus when the file item is extracted, the extraction app should also calculate the CRC value of the uncompressed data and compare it with the stored one. If they are the same, then the file data should be intact. However, if they are different, then this is called a CRC error, which means the file data has been changed. So, we use the CRC value to check whether the file data in the archive are corrupt or not.
CRC value is very strict. So even if one byte of the file data is changed, the CRC value will be inconsistent with the original one. In such a case, WinRAR and other RAR apps will refuse to extract files, which is called an extraction error. But actually, most of the bytes are still OK. Our tool can use advanced algorithms to recover data from the archive, so to reduce data losses.
Also sometimes, the file data are intact, but the CRC value itself is corrupt. In such a case, when other RAR apps refuse to extract files, our tool can also help you to fix the file corruption and get data back.
How long will it take to repair a RAR file?
The time of the repair process depends on many factors, including:
- The WinRAR file size.
- Count of items in the RAR file.
- The compression algorithm for the items.
