How to open A00 file?

The most common problem when using Split Multi-volume ARJ Compressed Format Archive (part 2) is that a specific A00 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that A00 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 A00 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 ALZip

The first step is to check if the computer has the ALZip program installed. This can be achieved by typing ALZip into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file A00 with ALZip. Below is a list of programs that support the file A00.

Programs to open A00 file

Remember to download programs supporting A00 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ALZip with A00 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the A00 file to open in the ALZip application, but you can set it manually. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the A00 file with the ALZip program.

Step 3. Update ALZip to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the ALZip program, it is possible that Split Multi-volume ARJ Compressed Format Archive (part 2) requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the ESTsoft Corp. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the A00 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the A00 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our A00 file. However, remember that not every infected A00 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 A00 file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair A00 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ESTsoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted A00 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the A00 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the A00 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 A00 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
