winrar/winzip troubles

[worthless085]

ok, i was curious if there is anyway to disable the error check when extracting a file?

I am trying to extract the World of Warcraft trial, and a few of the files say they are corrupt, but i would like to try to extract them anyways and run the install to see if i can get lucky, cause i dont want to wait in line at file planet and spend 5 hours downloading again.

thanks

open the zip / rar in winrar. choose the extract button. check the keep broken files box.

hmmm didnt work, its a CRC check error or something like that

when the extract fails my guess is the install will too. most installers (most modern ones at least) check the CRC of their files when they install. to prevent corrupted data from getting installed.
