    Install winrar
    Right click on the first file and choose extract to, then chose where you want to unpack it.

    Doesn't he mean that - like - he has 36 files that should be one single file? I don't know why you're mentioning WinRAR and unpacking the file(s). johnmcdnl, read the notes that accompany the torrent - and also comments by other people who downloaded it - as these should explain how to install it.

    these are normally winrar files and winrar recombines them.

    If they were .001 etc., you could use ms dos.
    "copy 1+2 3" which will create 3 from 1+2.

    Ah, you learn something new each day... :p I do'nt know why but I was thinking more about ISO files or files generated from a different[non-mainstream] programme that the source of the download had used. I for example use a programme called 'chainsaw' to break up files.
