Q: 

Whats the file structure of a rar file compressed in store mode

Hi,

I have many rars that a stored in store mode, that means they aren't compressed. I want to open them and read parts of the file that is "stored" in the rar. I think I can just open them if I knew the offset to the files.

Something in C# will do very well.

I can't find anything on the web.

Please help.

+1  A: 

The file format is publicly available. Straight from the horse's mouth: RarLabs

Where can I see the actual format?Is there a spec at RarLabs? I can't seem to find it...Cheers.

You can download the Win32 dll and use it to unrar the files you need. Just curious, why do you need to read the file manually?
