How to open 002 file?
The main problem with Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 2) is that the 002 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open 002, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 002 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 The Unarchiver
The first step is to check if the computer has the The Unarchiver program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name The Unarchiver in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file 002 with The Unarchiver. Below you will find a list of applications that support 002 files.
Programs to open 002 file
Remember to download programs supporting 002 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of The Unarchiver with 002 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 002 file still does not use the The Unarchiver program, it means no 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the 002 file with the The Unarchiver application.
Step 3. Update The Unarchiver to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the The Unarchiver program, it is possible that Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 2) requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Dag ?gren/WAHa.06x36 website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 002 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 002 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 002 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 002 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of 002 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged 002 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted 002 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the 002 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 002 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 002 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
