Thanks more infos. (Use installer from decompress the archive and srep versions.)

Make three blank folder! (Naming in: Test1/2/3)

Copy these files to all three folder: Arc.exe, unarc.exe, all xtool files, correct arc.ini, correct cls.ini and all lolz files.

Copy the files to Test1 folder: SREP.exe (x86 or x64 versions) and replace the 3.93a executable to 3.92a (use official binaries) and testing now.* Not working? Replace the 3.92a to 3.2 and try again.

Copy the files to Test2 folder: Old v0.3.3 cls-srep.dll file only! (87552 byte) and testing now.

Copy the files to Test3 folder: Newest (any version)** cls-srep.dll, cls-srep_x86/64.exe files. And testing now.

See posting testing results. All methods, not working, try recompress again the data files use SREP 3.92 or 3.2 (From v3.92 my preference, -m3f -a0 -l512 -c512)

*Open CMD window with admin rights and execute the commands:
"Arc.exe t archivefile"
Its ok or not, try use unarc.exe again: "unarc.exe t archivefile" (There are cases when this is almost good, but not with Arc.exe. Rare case. Decompression its ok, with error message.)
**Note: Too many cls-srep versions available! That's the problem with him.
