It¡¯s for parity recocery only. If you got all the rar files, you don¡¯t need them. You should have rar files matching with that.

Basically, it¡¯s for Usenet. Let¡¯s say you got 20 rar files and 3 par files to download. However, you were able to get only 19 rar files and 3 par files. Then, you can create the missing one file using the 19+3 files.
