Unable to extract files.

I tried extracting some downloaded font files from my WinRAR program, and an error window would come up giving some sort of directory and then saying 'archive is damaged or incomplete'.

I uninstalled WinRAR and tried extracting files with the normal zipped folders and still couldnt extract anything.

Any solutions?

The file itself is corrupted. It's likely a bad download.

I downloaded 2 fonts and they've both gone bad? :? Darn...I tried redownloading one of them and it still didnt work. I really need that font. T_T

Heres what comes up in the error window: C:\Documents and Setting\Owner\Desktop\dirty_egofixed.zip: The archive is either in unknown format or damaged.

And when I first open WinRAR an error comes up with '[Insert directory here]. Unexpected end of archive.'

Try downloading another one and see if it does that.

It's a bad file. If you can find it on another server try that. Otherwise you're having download issues and are losing packets ---OR--- then you might say it's an issue with WinRAR.

Well, I guess its those 2 files that dont work. I downloaded another font and opened WinRAR, everything went on the same. No error reports for it.

Conclusion: bad downloads.
Dang it! I really needed those fonts!
