If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 7Z.028 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. 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.

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 7Z.028 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 7Z.028 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 7Z.028 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the 7Z.028 file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 7Z.028 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Igor Pavlov help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 7Z.028 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the 7Z.028 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the 7Z.028 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file 7Z.028 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 7Z.028 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
