Fix "Password required" Error When Using Unrar in Ubuntu
If you’ve tried to use the built-in “Extract Here” functionality in Ubuntu’s File Roller to extract either a single or a multi-part zip or rar file and ended up with a “Password required” error, then you might just assume the files are password protected when in fact they are not.
It turns out that this error message pops up for one of two other reasons:
* The files are named incorrectly or a file is missing. Remember that Linux is case-sensitive and all files in the set should be named similarly.
* One of the files is damaged and might need to be repaired using GPar2, if you have the matching PAR files.
