How to open 026 file?
The most common problem when using Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 26) is that a specific 026 is not associated with the program. This causes the file 026 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 026 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
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that 7-Zip is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing 7-Zip into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file 026.
Programs to open 026 file
Remember to download programs supporting 026 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 7-Zip with 026 files
If, despite the installed application, the 026 file does not start in the 7-Zip application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the 026 file with the 7-Zip program.
Step 3. Update 7-Zip to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the 7-Zip program, it is possible that Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 26) requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Igor Pavlov page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 026 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 026 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 026 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 026 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the 026 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged 026 files. 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 026 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the 026 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 026 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 026 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
