when i am trying to extract a winrar file the following message is displayed

"You need to have the following volume to continue extraction:
"Insert a disk with this volume and presss "OK" to try again or press "Cancel" to break extraction"

The file seems to be a part of volume based archive...it should have other parts in .r01, .r02 and so on... Put all such files in same folder and then open.

Yeah you can try...VLC media player should be able to play it. Don't expect good quality then in it. Howcome you missed other parts?

oops...just realized that video file is in rar file...so you cannot play that file in VLC Media player since you need to extract the file first which you cannot without getting the other parts.

Only option for you is to get other parts and put all such parts in a single folder and then open and extract the archive.
