"Corrupted file" while dezipping [SOLVED]

"Corrupted file" while dezipping [SOLVED] Empty "Corrupted file" while dezipping [SOLVED]

Post by Guest Thu 22 Jun 2017, 09:13

Hi everyone, so now that toddlers are back sims 4, i'm trying to install :
- sims 4 base game
- Get Together
- Get to work
- City Living
- Parenthood

I downloaded everything, but while dezipping the .rar files of the base game (before installing the game), it appears that there is one corrupted file. I've tried to ignore it, copy it anyway, but nothing works. When dezipping the Parenthood .rar files, it's telling me the same : that some package file is corrupted, the game needs it, so basically it'll never work.

So I'm currently re-downloaded everything from your website, but I don't know what else can I do in order to make this work ?


Thank you guys, and good day to everyone Very Happy

When a downloaded .rar files is corrupt whilst unzipping with WINRAR, you must re-download it again.
Use WINRAR to unzip, nothing else

Hi Tarac, thank you for your advice. I'm only using WINRAR to unzipp the files, but good to know that this is the one to use. Thanks.

I'm currently re-downloading everything, I'll let you know if it works Smile

I've failed while unzipping the base game .rar that I redownloaded for the second time, with WINRAR. I don't get it  Why God.

EDIT : I was able to unzipp the .rar file. But while installing the base game, it says now that the "setup1.cab" file is corrupting, so the game is unabled to install itself correctly. I'm so desperate right now

Hi,



Have you set the proper exclusions in your anti-virus as well as windows defender? The 'safest' method is to turn them completely off when downloading and installing. Since the corrupted message is still there, unfortunately, you need to re=download the torrent again. 


PS: How did you unzip it exactly? Two times corruption is odd unless the anti-virus 'messed' with it somehow.

Hi Ageha, I feel a bit lame now cause... yes... I forgot to add the exclusions in my anti virus software. And now that I did add those exclusions, well... I was able to start installing everything.
I now have a problem with downloading the patch 1.30 (something like that), I don't know why it won't start downloading, but other than that ... It looks fine for now. After finally downloading the patch, I'll try the hole game ... and see if it works or not.

Thank you anyway, I feel like a Noob

Everything is working out now, thanks so much, you can close this post Smile

Solutions for my problem (it might help someone else) :
- adding everyting in the exclusions in your anti virus
- unizziping in an individual way the file that is presumed "corrupted"

and everything will be working out !

Thanks again

Naome
