How can I extract a multi-part rar file in linux?

Question

I need to extract a multi part rar archive in the form of archive_1.exe archive_2.rar archive_3.rar. How can I do this in linux?

I have tried unrar and 7z but unrar x archive_1.exe is extracting files with the reverse path format (eg. \file\dir) and 7z is unable to extract beyond the first file.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Solution

cd /path/to/your/download

unrar x filename.of.part1.rar

exe are made to run on windows, If you really want to do this, You should consider installing something like WINE & winrar then giving it a try. On the other hand I don't think this question should be asked on Stackoverflow, as it's not related to programming in anyway.

Could you add a little more description about the explanation you provide?

I'm on Debian Jessie derived Bunsen Linux. unrar is actually already installed: $ man unrar - extract files from rar archives...

To be more clear, that means unrar on the first part !

Isn't this an accepted answer?

As @AmirRezazadeh mentioned, first part was called .rar in my situation and the rest of the parts were r00, r01, .... So, pay attention to using like this unrar x first-part-of-set
