How to open R34 file?

The most common problem when using Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 36) is that a specific R34 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open R34, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the R34 file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.

Step 1. Install WinRAR

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WinRAR is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name WinRAR into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file R34 with WinRAR. Below you will find a list of applications that support R34 files.

Programs to open R34 file

Remember to download programs supporting R34 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R34 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the R34 file to open in the WinRAR application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WinRAR application as the default for handling the R34 file.

Step 3. Update WinRAR to the latest version

If, despite the association of the WinRAR program with the Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 36) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the win.rar GmbH page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the R34 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the R34 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our R34 file. Sometimes virus-infected R34 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the R34 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged R34 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Eugene Roshal, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted R34 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move R34 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the R34 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the R34 file again. However, some background programs may block the R34 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
