How to open A19 file?
The most common problem when using Split Multi-volume ARJ Compressed Format Archive (part 21) is that a specific A19 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open A19, 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 A19 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
In this case, you should first verify that the ARJ32 application 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. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open A19 files.
Programs to open A19 file
Remember to download programs supporting A19 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ARJ32 with A19 files
If, despite the installed application, the A19 file does not start in the ARJ32 application, you must create a file association. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the A19 file with the ARJ32 application.
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 21) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the ARJ Software, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the A19 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The A19 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the A19 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the A19 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover A19 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 A19 files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular A19 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 A19 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 A19 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file A19 to close. However, some background programs may block the A19 file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
