option to always first repair

Post by Mierzoet »

Hi.

Is there an option to always start repair on a downloaded collection before starting unrar?
Lately I see rars appear with obfuscated names, made entirly of a string of characters.

Rar always fails, then repair starts, renaming the files, then unrar starts again.

This process takes a lot more time, then first start repair, then unrar.

If I have the option, I would much rather have UE repair first, even if collection appears 100%.

grtz,
alex

Repair is always supposed to go before unrar.

In the unpack properties settings do you have "Require par2 verification" all checked?

Even when unchecked it is still supposed to do repair first when possible, may depend on other settings.

E.g. better to have par2 menu, mark par2 zero file for download first and with highest priority checked.

If you still see it give me an example along with the screenshot of the unpack properties and par2 menu settings and I'll check it out.
