Demo RAR File Corrupted

[eviltwin333]

I’ve downloaded the EZDrummer 2 Demo at least 3 or 4 times and every time I try and unpack the RAR it says the file is corrupt. More specifically, it says that the “DATA.cab” file is corrupt. I’m a bit worried about purchasing this product when I can’t even get the demo version to install. Please advise

RAR?? assuming that you mean ZIP file.
how big is the downloaded ZIP file? it should be 2.35 GB.
If the download completes and the size looks correct,
please try another ‘unzip’ program or the “Extract All” option in Windows Explorer.

Yes, wrong terminology I guess, I meant ZIP file. I think you may have figured it out. Every time I download the demo it finishes at 2.2 gb. You’re saying file size should be 2.35 gb. For some reason I’m not getting the full download. I’m going to try and download it with my other much faster i7 computer and see if I can get the whole download now. Thanks for the help.

Try using a download manager as well.

Hmmm, I took your advice and downloaded 7zip and it unzipped the file without any problem. The strange thing is Winrar says that the file is 2.2 gb but 7zip says it is 2.42 gb. Nonetheless 7zip did the trick and I installed it without issue. Now there is another problem. I went to activate my demo and it keeps saying that I’m using the wrong email or password. I am typing the correct info in so I don’t get it . . .

Wow . . . after I had created my account I went in and changed my password. For some reason even though I’ve logged onto the site with the new password for the last couple of days I still had to use the initial password to activate my demo. Odd . . . In any event it seems to be activated and working now. Thanks again for the assistance.
