When i have rar files here on this site i download them on my phone or tablet.
Because in the rar file there is mostly another type of file inside witch have to open with another programme.
If you have multiple rar files in one thread, you first have to download all of them and than open the first part.

What program are you using to download. I an using UnRAR, and it does not seem to be working. Also do you know if there is a cbr compressor, I cannot seem to find any of those.

I use this for rar files on my tablet and phone.
I will have a look for compressing cbr files.

For those that don't know, .rar files are a different format of .zip files.  You can not rename a .rar file to .zip.  When you download .zip or .rar files, you use your browser (firefox, chrome, edge) to download the file to your computer like you would normally do.  Once the file is downloaded to your computer, you must then extract the files in the .zip or .rar.  To do this you usually (but not always) have to have installed on your computer a program to 'unzip' the files contained in the .zip or .rar file.  I use a program called 7zip which will unzip both types of compressed files.  Once the file is unzipped, you can go about reading your files with the appropriate programs.

Hope this helps some people.
