If you get a corrupt file when trying to open winrar archive

[biscuitman1]

sometimes this happens to me and i finally found the solution, if you download a hack and your anti virus starts to scan it, (so far i have only tried this with avg"

it may come up with a message like "virus detected" even though you know its not a virus but its just a false positive, and then if (using avg for example) you get a box pop up saying "move to vault" or "ignore", it doesn't matter which one you click the winrar archive WILL BECOME CORRUPTED, and will not open, the way i fixed this?


either double click the archive BEFORE THE SCAN FINISHES and then drag the files you need to desktop, before it gets corrupted, or

(i do not reccomend this second way at all)

turn your anti virus off, <-- not recommended although i did it because i cba to keep rushing to drag files, sorry if this doesn't make sense, i don't think you will understand what i mean unless it has happened to you before, ill try and make it clearer if requested though

(also, first post since i became active again, i stopped using these forums for about a year :p)


edit: i don't know why everyone always wants these "thanks" but i guess ill hop onto the band wagon, if this helped you press thanks :D
