For RAR version 5.0 - the least significant bit of the "Encryption flags" field. What is elementary searched for in the official specification of the format.

I just can't understand s. inscription
0x01 - the file continues from the previous volume
0x02 - the file continues in the next volume
0x04 - the file is encrypted with a password
rar can create an archive of several volumes in order to divide a large archive into several files that can be transferred separately.
Yes, bits are used, and you are correct in assuming that the encrypted file + continues will be 6, or 110 in binary

And can the information of a broken or not broken archive be stored in the archive structure? Or is it only possible to find out by comparing the checksums?
