How do I extract a single directory from a .rar file?
Hey, okay I'm new to all this and I only just figured out how to extract files from a .rar file so this might be a really obvious question but anyway...I used wget to download a .rar file from the internet and I tried to extract it but I started getting messages that some of the files already existed and did I want to overwrite them. The .rar file I downloaded was made up of several folders all with different files in them. I found out that the error messages were because when I extract the files it ignores the folders and just extracts all the individual files instead. How do I get it to extract one folder with all the files still in it? Hopefully this makes sense to someone :scratch: Thanks in advance

I assume that you try to decompress the archive with
Code:
unrar e archive.rar Code:
unrar x archive.rar For more info on unrar look at Code:
man unrar |
Oh wow, okay thanks for the help that worked :)
