Hi
I had 10 hours to compress Elden Ring with this method
oo2reck:8+srep+LOLZ_NORMAL
at last step to create Data1a-01.bin The electricity went out
now I have OutFile size 35.9Gb
and freearc1.tmp size 29.9Gb
there is any way to complete the last step or I need to start again? :(
thanks
Nothing can be done, restart the whole process.

Not sure if this even works, but if you have the temp files still, try this:

Unfortunately if you suffer frequent power outages, it's probably for the best not to use LOLZ. LZMA will grant you faster compression giving you more chance to finish your archive however the final size will be larger.

Thanks for your replay
Safer ways use UPS! Electricity off detected, press PAUSE button in last during compression progress paused and hibernate the PC. Electricity its available again, booting PC again, waiting loading all data transferred via to memory from HDD. The PC its fully online, continue data compressing. (Press PAUSE or any buttons in via CMD window.)
Alternatively use DLZ compressor, minimally better CR ratio than LZMA1/2 algos.
