How can I reassemble files that have multiple parts after recovery?

[RubiDan]

My PC, running Vista, refused to boot (BSOD). I reloaded XP (The PC vendor insisted they would not help me with Vista.) in a different subdirectory and got access to all data that was not stored in My Documents or on the Desktop. I used ZAR to recover files from the NTFS volume that were stored in these two subdirectories, but the large files are subdivided into smaller files (although the extensions appear to be correct). I can reassemble large text files, but don't know what to do with more complex content such as Access databases and spreadsheets. As an example, my Access database, PSExtract.accdb, was recovered into 3 files: PSExtract(1).accdb, PSExtract(2).accdb and PSExtract.accdb. Is there some way to reassemble these files into one?

Thanks,

Dan

Numbered files are not the part of the same file, but rather a versions of the file (which existed at some point in time). And note that numbers do not correspond to the order of versions. To get rid of this, re-run ZAR once again. When prompted for a processing mode,




change "Recover both "Current" files ..." to "Only recover Current files". This should only produce the most actual versions of the files.
