    Whenever I unzip this RAR file, it always shows that:

    Can not open file 'file here' as archive.

    How can I open it? :confused

    Can you download this file again, plus download from a different source as its possible its corrupted.

    Also open WinRar and browser and highlight the archive your wanting to open, then click Tools > Repair Archive

    Is there an independent program for fixing RAR? Because I'm using 7Zip.

    Not familiar with 7Zip to know if it as a repair function, but have a look through its menus.

    Yes this archive software will try and repair broken archives http://www.izarc.org/ ( its free and compatible with 98/NT/2000/XP/2003/Vista )

    Again, browse and highlight the corrupt archive and click Tools > Repair Archive
