I have an up-to-date HP laptop running Windows 10 and I'm occasionally having issues opening .rar files with the preloaded 7z File Manager, I always get a message saying "Cannot open genericfilename.rar as archive"

I've tried the "open with" (to ensure using the file manager program not the other icon as that doesn't work either) as well as "extract" options when right clicking, and have tried double clicking the file. I have tried re-downloading the file thinking the download may be incomplete.

Now I know what you may be thinking at this point, as its what I've found on my own and what I assumed, the files aren't corrupted, per say, as my current fix for this issue is putting the file on a memory stick, plugging into my also up to date, also hp brand netbook, and extracting it with the same preloaded 7z file manager, back on the stick and into the main machine (-.-), that part I found out because because I had a file I could no longer re-download on a backup drive, and thought it was just 7z, not knowing the netbook also came with 7z, but it worked, and continues to do so, as this seems to be happening more often (I play Fallout: New Vegas, as old as it is, and people are still releasing content for it, so 7-Zip gets a bit of a workout)

  Maybe archive uses archiving method which is unknown to 7Zip yet. Maybe the archive file is damaged. Download WinRAR installator, extract command-line tool RAR.EXE from it (it seems it can be used for free) and use it for testing/unpacking your archive. Or install trial (40-day) WinRAR version and use it for test/repair/unpack.
