Hello,
I have a zipped folder (1.98GB) that mostly contains .wav files. I'm using 7zip to decompress it, but strangely, it doesn't decompress all the files in the folder. I see this message displayed: "Unexpected end of data. Warning: There is data after the end of the useful data."
Do you know how I can solve this problem?

Configuration: Windows / Chrome 83.0.4103.116

Hello,

In my opinion, the archive is corrupted and needs to be re-downloaded.

You might want to use another decompression program....
There’s more than just 7zip...
Personally, I use PKzip... but it’s less user-friendly than software with a graphical interface!

But nothing guarantees that it will solve your problem because if the archive is corrupted, it won’t help much...
If it’s an archive of multiple files, perhaps you can recover only part of it.
