You can set the number of volumes each file is split into and the redundancy as a percentage. So if you have it set to 3 volumes and you are protecting 2 files, 'test1.zip' and 'test2.zip', it will produce a series of 6 files (2 files to protect x 3 volumes each) named like:

Recovery Star by artem-drobanov (Drobanov Artyom Fedorovich) and lkorolkov (Leonid Korolkov) is a 'RAID-Like Cauch Reed-Solomon File Codec' that also offers AES encryption.

It is designed to protect files on a CD/DVD from bitrot by splitting them and adding extra parity

You can set the number of volumes each file is split into and the redundancy as a percentage. So if you have it set to 3 volumes and you are protecting 2 files, 'test1.zip' and 'test2.zip', it will produce a series of 6 files (2 files to protect x 3 volumes each) named like:

  • C000000020001.test1.zip
  • C000000020001.test2.zip
  • C000100020001.test1.zip
  • C000100020001.test2.zip
  • C000200020001.test1.zip
  • C000200020001.test2.zip

The default is 256 volumes which is probably overkill for most files

Versions before 1.60 aren't compatible with later versions due to the addition of CRC-64
