PAR files Stands for Parity files Synonyms: PAR2 files Terminology | Dictionary | Explanation PAR files are able to reconstruct files that are missing from the archive when downloading via newsgroups. For example, if you have downloaded an archive that was split into 47 RAR files but one of them is missing, you could simply download a PAR file for that archive. Once you have the PAR file, you can use a tool such as SmartPAR to reconstruct the missing file. With PAR files you usually need all the PAR parts to rebuild one missing RAR or 00X file, but with PAR2 files you can try downloading just a few of the PAR2 files and see if SmartPAR can rebuild it, and if not, leep downloading a few more PAR2 files until there is enough to rebuild everything. |
