Hi, i try to extract an archive generated with 7z, but I get the error of the subject, i read some posts and followed http://www.7-zip.org/recover.html instructions, however i can´t open archive.

The following is hex representation of the first 36 bytes of the 7zip archive:
45 cf fa a2 cb aa 20 30 ee c5 29 44 ba a1 dd af
bd 60 14 30 8e 00 a4 d0 06 ea 88 d7 94 d2 4b 43

The size of 7zip archive is 13.420.724.224 bytes(12,4 GB)

I really want to extract this archive. Please help me.

it's not archive.
There is no header
maybe it's some part of some data.
Try in latest 7-Zip 17.00 beta:
menu command in 7-Zip:

File / Open Inside #
