You could try tar for windows: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/tar.htm
How did you split your tars ?

I can open the first file (the *.tar.aa) w/ winrar
but unlike rar/zip part, it won't extract the file from 2nd part and the rest
and end up w/ corrupted message
I use this command to split
split -b 10m Filename.tar Filename.tar.~ Ganbareee

that software is based on command line...
I don't understand how to do it >_< (sorry I'm really bad with this command line stuff)
is there no GUI based software that can do it? (just uncompressed it)~ Ganbareee

oh no... I'm doomed
anyway is there another way to split tar compression file just like zip/rar splitter?
so it can be extracted as easy compressed w/ winrar or winzip?~ Ganbareee

If you already split file using ''split'' command , just join them using ''cat'' command then unpack file.
cat file1 file2 >> file3
