Hello! I'm new here first post. I 've been around mostly reading.

To cut straight to the problem ;)
I once made an arc file out of a backup of old files with this tool http://fileforums.com/showthread.php?t=95288
and i've noticed that freearc won't extract it and that thread doesn't offer any unpacker tool, it does offer an IsDone support but i never used Innosetup that much and i don't really know how to use that IsDone.dll

So if you have any tips on what should i do for extracting that archive, please let me know. :)
Thanks in advance for your help.

I already tried it, it returns: incompatible compressed data format.

Try Deluxe Extractor.

Thanks!

You need to manually select, because precomp is not backwards compatible.
