How to open 031 file?
An often recurring problem with Split Format Or Compressed Format From A Multi-volume Archive (part 31) is that 031 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that 031 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 031 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
In this case, you should first verify that the 7-Zip application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name 7-Zip in it. 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 031.
Programs to open 031 file
Remember to download programs supporting 031 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 7-Zip with 031 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 031 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. 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 031 file.
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 31) 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 031 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The 031 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to 031 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 031 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected 031 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of 031 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 031 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Igor Pavlov help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file 031 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.
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. Copying the 031 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 031 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
