Have you ever seen these file ?
- zipfiles.zip
- zipfiles.z01
- zipfiles.z02
- zipfiles.z03
- ……
- zipfiles.z10
These are the multi-part of zipped files, which mean one big file are to big to make archive so it should split into several files. These files were created by winzip. Probably for many people (included me) it such a weird file, and they don’t know how to extract the file archives.
After my research in whole google how to extract it, here i want to share to you how to extract it.
For window platform
There are so many software has support for these extension such as winzip, winrar, 7-zip, and many other, put those file in one folder, and then just click with your supported software above, and whala…. the file extracted.
For linux platform
The problem for newbie user in linux is they don’t now how to combine the command within. I got the problem too with these platform, but that’s why i like most with this platform, it challenged me to know. Alright then here the command for solve this problem.hendra-k@server $ cat zipfiles.* > zipfiles-full.zip
hendra-k@server $ zip -F zipfiles-full.zip
hendra-k@server $ unzip zipfiles-full.ziphere the description for these command above :
hendra-k@server $ cat zipfiles.* > zipfiles-full.zip
= merging those file into one full zipped filehendra-k@server $ zip -F zipfiles-full.zip
= Fixing the archive of the overall zipped fileshendra-k@server $ unzip zipfiles-full.zip
= Extract the full zipped fil

For that there is a many programs,but me like this tool-repairing zip files,exactly it could helped me,very popular freeware tool, it permits to save a lot of free space, when storing data,supports all Windows operating systems, starting from Windows 98, i.e. Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows XP SP2, Windows 2003 and Windows Vista,can see such messages, like Cannot open file: it does not appear to be a valid archive, CRC error or some other failures,will see a list of files, that can be recovered, registered customers can save the files to HDD and finish with recovery process.
THANK YOU!! linux commands useful for os x.
@jordi: interesting, I have just unzipped multi-part zip file and unrar-ed the file that was in there (in Linux of course). So I guess the problem is in you, not in Linux.
(don’t ask me why someone sent me such files – windows users do all sorts of weird things)
But yes, unzip should support the multi-part unzipping without workarounds. We are all waiting for the next major version.
Good job, I was looking for that. Couldn’t find it less faster, 4th link, first page of Googling.
There are 4 parts of zip file (wmv). But I have only part 1 & 2, And I cannot find part 3 & 4. Thus, can I extract only part 1 &2, then see it by movie player?
Please help to advise!
Thanks in advance.

Short and clean tutorial! Thank you!
PS – I was trying to merge IZarc multi-part archive on Linux. Your site was very helpful.
sudo aptitude -y install p7zip-full
Or, if you’re not on Ubuntu, install the “p7zip-full” package of your distribution.
Thank you so much!
Can I extract **.zip without z02,z03,…..
Thanks
riz
yes you can..
Thank you for this tutorial! The man page told me what needed to be done, but not really how to do it.
The only change I’d see is that when I ran the command:
zip -F
I recieved the following:
zip: reading
zip: warning: would be truncated.
Retry with option -qF to truncate, with -FF to attempt full recovery
I used the -FF, but I don’t know if it will work or should be recommended…It’s still reading the file (4 hours later).
O.K.
Thanks a lot
It work even on multipart archives with password, but you have to use -P modifier for unzip command
How do you do this in windows with winzip. I did what was posted, but there was no whala, no unzipped, combined 4 files. files are .z01-.z04
