Extract RAR file with a password

Post by hugok »

I cannot extract a rar file that have a password, it returns with an error after i make an extract here (xfce 13.37)
In a (Windows vista) of my friend i can extract with a simple extract here using WinRar.

According to this, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour ... ug/732600m it's a bug in file-roller which was fixed in version 2.32.2. Salix has version 2.32.1.

You can use unrar from the command line. I never tried it with file-roller.
