How to open 013 file?
The most common problem when using Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 13) is that a specific 013 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open 013, 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 013 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 7-Zip
The first step is to check if the computer has the 7-Zip program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name 7-Zip in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 013 files.
Programs to open 013 file
Remember to download programs supporting 013 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 7-Zip with 013 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 013 file still does not use the 7-Zip 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 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. 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 013 file with the 7-Zip program.
Step 3. Update 7-Zip to the latest version
If, however, after binding 7-Zip with Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 13) there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Igor Pavlov website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 013 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:
The 013 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 013 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 013 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 013 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 013 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 013 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Igor Pavlov help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 013 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. It is best to move 013 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 013 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
