Couldn't extract RAR archive.

I'm trying to install The Sims 4 following the instructions on the *MUST READ* post. I downloaded the main game files but as i try to extract them (with 7-zip) i get a "cyclic redundancy check" failure. That happens while unzipping 'setup3.cab' which is one of the required files for installing the game, while the other files are unzipped correctly.

Here:

i found a solution to a similar problem, where it was suggested to extract the files with WinRAR: i tried that but i got the same problem. I'd like to know if it's possible to get just the 'setup3.cab' file instead of downloading again the full 8Gb archive from another torrent client, as suggested in the topic i mentioned above.

Thanks for your time!

And it reminds us of the importance to let torrents running in the client, even after it has finished downloading.   Have fun for now, and feel free to open a new topic again anytime you need more support. Problem solved, topic closed.
