I did not supply the file?
I would ask for your Money back or a good replacement?

I know at one point it was common to see mislabeled CBR's / CBZ's; ie a CBR (rar format) labelled as a CBZ (zip format) and vice-versa. You might want to double check that the file actually IS a RAR and NOT a ZIP.

A RAR file should start with the signature "Rar!".

@Denver6 - Try taking a copy of the .CBR, rename that to .CBZ and see if that converts

Else try to unpack the CBR with something (WinRAR, 7zip etc) and rebuild as a ZIP or RAR.

It may be damaged in which case you might be able to repair it with WinRAR.
