When I try to cat in one file, for exemple cert.pem I receive ab error: No such file or directory
These are symbolic links - special files that just contain the path to another file. When you cat them, they essentially redirect to the file they link to. However, as evident by the red color in the ls output, these links are broken - they point to files that do not exist, and thus you get that error when you try to cat them.

I have downloaded a large file about 2gigs from remote server but by mistake I gave it name . (dot).
How can I rename it using linux commands ?
I don't think you really have named it .. Or at least, you cannot have done so successfully.
The name . is reserved for the current directory. So either it has been given another name implicitly, or it has been removed/discarded.
Try
find -size +1536M -ls
to find if there is any file with this size, and if so, verify if it can be the file you look for.

I want to unrar this archive to keep the file structure as it was in Windows - with folder.

How to do it ?
Thanks.
man unrar says
x Extract files with full path.
