Top 13 PAR Buddy Alternative and Similar Softwares | Dec 2024

PAR Buddy is a free Parchive (PAR) and RAR client which makes it
possible to easily queue and schedule PAR2 check/repair jobs and
RAR unpacking.

PAR Buddy is especially useful when associated with PAR2 in
Windows since this makes it fast and easy to queue and prioritize jobs.
Another useful feature is the ability to schedule heavy PAR/RAR jobs
to times where the PC is idle.

If you are allready using QuickPAR, PAR Buddy is a great supplement
since QuickPAR can be launched in the rare cases where PAR Buddy
is not convenient.
