Individual components for different archives

Depending on your needs, the setup asks what components to display, although it’s a good idea to bundle all of them, since they only take up little disk space. As such, you can opt to install repair components for ZIP, RAR, CAB, and TAR archives.

All of them allow batch processing, while drag and drop support make it easy to load all target files. Moreover, there’s an options section you can use to specify some general elements, such as opening the fixed file when done, prompt to extract fixed files after repair, setting buffer size, repairing solid archives, or providing a password for secured RAR archives.

Search engine, and log file

An additional way to add files is to use the built-in search option. It’s found in each archive component, letting you specify common, or advanced search filters like name, location, size, file attributes, and time options.Unfortunately, the application doesn’t integrate itself into the context menu for faster trigger, but drag and drop provides enough ease of access as is. When the process starts, a progress slider lets you know how much you need to wait, with an additional time consumed section with hour and minute indicators.The log is shown in a dedicated section right after the operation is done. You can easily export it to a LOG file at the press of a button. It shows the process state, as well as how, and what files are processed.
