How to open A06 file?
An often recurring problem with Split Multi-volume ARJ Compressed Format Archive (part 8) is that A06 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open A06, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the A06 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 ARJ32
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ARJ32 is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ARJ32 in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support A06 files.
Programs to open A06 file
Remember to download programs supporting A06 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ARJ32 with A06 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the A06 file still does not use the ARJ32 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ARJ32 application as the default for handling the A06 file.
Step 3. Update ARJ32 to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ARJ32 program with the Split Multi-volume ARJ Compressed Format Archive (part 8) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the ARJ Software, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the A06 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 suggests truncating the A06 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the A06 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover A06 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the A06 files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair A06 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact ARJ Software, Inc.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file A06 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. 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 A06 file to another location.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file A06 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the A06 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
