Programs to open S04 file
Remember to download programs supporting S04 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ZipSplitter with S04 files
If, despite the installed application, the S04 file does not start in the ZipSplitter application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the S04 file with the ZipSplitter program.

If, however, after binding ZipSplitter with Split Multi-volume ZipSplitter Compressed Format Archive (part 5) there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Lithops Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S04 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the S04 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the S04 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected S04 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the S04 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged S04 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Lithops Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted S04 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move S04 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the S04 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the S04 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
