can't open B4all zip

Post by ajfrazer »

I'm trying to open B4all zip files created in a very large backup director. format examp "81_e.z07". I've tried all standard unzip utilities and none can read it. Backups were created with v4.3. What am I missing?

Hi,

Have you tried WinZip 9.1 or later?

Yes, I tried the latest Winzip and it says format not recognizable. The help screen in B4All says "you will need to perform an additional operation if you want to restore that file manually (without using Backup4all)" for large zips. I did not set the feature for "create independant splits"

Hi,

Please note the .z07 file is a split part of the main zip file. You should be able to open it using WinZip 9.1 or later.
Make sure all the zip and z0x files are in the same folder when opening them.
