par2cmdline – PAR 2.0 compatible file verification and repair tool

par2cmdline is a program for creating and using PAR2 files to detect damage in data files and repair them if necessary. It can be used with any kind of file.

Parchive is redundant file format. If you lose part of your file in transmission or in storage, you can use a Parchive file to repair it. It’s like RAID for files instead of a whole file system.

PAR2 uses Reed-Solomon Coding to perform its calculations

This is free and open source software.
