Windows 10: Network Issues After Repair (Kept Files)

I had an issue with Windows - explorer kept crashing. I carried our windows repair keeping my files. On the restored windows I am unable to connect to or even find network printer or other computers on network. Also remote desktop not working.


I am able to connect to internet which I do over my router. I can ping network printer but 50% packet loss. I tried disabling windows firewall. I have no 3rd party security software. IP assigned by DHCP and is on correct network. Network troubleshooter could not find anything wrong. When I ran it against printer it said printer was there but not responding. I checked and printer is in fact working. High degree of certainty that issue with my computer.


Any suggestions beside to a complete reinstall?


Thanks.

Corrupted file RAR

If the archive has been created using WinRAR, why don't you try WinRAR itself? It has a built-in repair feature for repairing corrupted archive (ZIP as well as RAR). Follow the steps given below:

• Open WinRAR application in your system.
• Now click on File tab > Open or simply press Ctrl+O.
• A small window "Find Archive" will pop up. Locate the corrupt RAR archive from your system directory and select it.
• Now click Open button.
• Click Tools tab > Repair archive or simply press Alt+R.
• Again a small window "Repairing File name.rar" will pop up.
• Now click Browse to select a location to save the repaired archive.
• Check the box "Treat the corrupt archive as RAR" and click OK.
• WinRAR will start repairing of corrupt RAR archive. Once it gets completed click Close.

I hope the above steps will help you repair the corrupted RAR archive.
