Hi.

I have found a post that contains an application that I want to download. The author shows a series of rar files (e.g., xxx1.rar, xxx2.rar, xxx3.rar, xxx4.rar). When I open the xxx1.rar, contained therein is a cab file that I downloaded to my ATT Fuze. After downloading this cab file, I proceeded to the cab file contained in file xxx2.rar. However, my ATT Fuze tells me that the file already exits and ask do I wish to replace the first file.

Am I suppose to rename each cab file before downloading them or let each succeeding cab file replace the previous cab file?
Please advise.
Thanks.

Get yourself WinRAR there is a free trial to be had. Create a folder, name it anything you want, Put all your rar files in that same folder. Unrar the first one and it will automatically find and unrar all the rest joining them back together as it does. Check the size of your completed unrared file. You will see that it is larger than the size of all your rars added together. This proves that all the files have been unrared.

I appreciate the explanation. Take care and have a happy Thanksgiving with your family.
