Step 1. Install 7-Zip

In this case, you should first verify that the 7-Zip application 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. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 030 files.

Programs to open 030 file

Remember to download programs supporting 030 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of 7-Zip with 030 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 030 file still does not use the 7-Zip program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 7-Zip application as the default for handling the 030 file.

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the 7-Zip program, it is possible that Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 30) requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Igor Pavlov website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 030 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The 030 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the 030 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 030 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected 030 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of 030 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 030 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Igor Pavlov, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file 030 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the 030 file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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 you have to wait for the session to the file 030 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
