    I think I made a tutorial thread explaining how to use them with Winrar a long time ago so I could link that instead of explaining . I guess 7zip dropped the function?

    I've mostly used 7-zip for years but don't recall making recoveries

    Might've made .sfv for some stuff at one point though, ages ago.

    I actually had one of my external backups fuckup a bit a while ago. I keep backups of my backups nowadays, but of course I copied the files to the secondary backup from my fucking up drive, so I was left with over a TB of iffy data...
    Played around for a day with random sfv's and par2's I keep for my own shit, and recovered basically everything. But even in that situation I wouldn't think to look if some random file had a recovery record baked into it.

    You can still unzip RAR files using 7zip. Is there even a reason to still use WinRAR? I guess it can be handy, but 7zip is pretty handy too.

    7zip can rarely mishandle a .rar file.

    I remember when I got my laptop as a graduation gift years ago. It was state of the art for its time. Or really good for a laptop. It had a blu-ray drive and a SD card slot, and a dedicated graphics card.

    Man I remember when I got mine years ago too lol. My first laptop. Just graduated high school and needed a editing laptop, ended up with a uhhhh...Acer? I think? I remember it was called a Sattelite or something.

    Got a Wacom tablet too when I started college, thought it was going to be good for photo editing lol. Eh.

    At least I got my Bachelors in Photography out of all that.

    Yeah my laptop was an HP something. My first HD screen. 4GB RAM, which was pretty good at the time. It was good for gaming and coding.

    When I finished high school we had an IBM 5160 at home, no windows just a DOS machine. At school we had a bunch of Apple IIe's.
    Nobody had laptops

    When I was done we had a 486 dx4 100. The first pentiums had been around for a couple of years by then though.
