We use some file extensions regularly. For example, we listen to mp3 music , watch movies in avi. And we are already familiar with such extensions. Moreover, there are likely to be several programs on your computer that you can use to open them. But sometimes when downloading files we come up with completely new letter combinations at the end of the name (after the period). And then the problem arises, why open such repositories of information and how to extract the desired from them? As an example, consider the cbr format. How to open a file so unusual for most users?
To begin with, it is worth getting to know him directly. After all, we must know what we are dealing with in a particular case. Before you open cbr with any program specially designed for this, you need to understand that in front of us is essentially an ordinary archive. However, it cannot contain information presented in the form of text files, as well as videos and music. This format stands for Comic Book RAR Archive. If you translate this frau from English into Russian, it becomes clear that inside the archive, when it is successfully unpacked, we will find several images (comics, as the name says). Hidden information will be presented in the form of gif, jpeg or png files. However, the peculiarity of this archive is that all the images stored in it will be located in a certain order. That is why it is usually used when it is necessary to create a comic book or presentation (slide show). However, when using various kinds of programs, pictures can change places, because of which the main meaning of this format will be lost.
So, now we are familiar not only with the rar extension, but also with the cbr cryptic format. How to open such an interesting archive? For example, the familiar program for automatically unpacking WinRAR will do just fine with you. Surely many people have it on the computer. However, even if for some reason you have not used it before and this archiver is not installed in the system, you can quickly download it provided that you have an Internet connection. Such a program has a relatively small size, if we consider the analogues available in the public domain. It is easy to use, and in WinRAR you do not have to change many settings. However, this is far from the only salvation for those who urgently needed to use the cbr format archive. How to open such an extension without using WinRAR?
If your computer uses an operating system called Windows, then the set of possible programs is narrowed to the following list:
- CDisplay
- StuffIt Deluxe 2010.
In this case, the latter utility can be applied with the same success on the MAC. In addition to it, the owners of such an OS usually use a program called Feedface FFView. With its help, it will also be possible to extract images that are stored in an archive of the cbr type.
How to open such an extension is not only a question for users of the two above systems. Linux owners also often deal with these archives. And here they will need a completely different utility. It is called simply and clearly - Comix. And you need to use it together with Unrar - a program that helps to extract the desired compressed files. Their joint work will give the user the desired result.
So, we considered such an extension of archives for storing information in a compressed form, like cbr. How to open such an unusual format? Everything will depend on which OS is installed on your personal or working computer. But in any case, remember that there is no such extension that would not have found its utility. Most likely, the program can be easily found by the corresponding request in the search engine, as well as download. And it’s completely free.
