How to open C44 file?

The main problem with Split Multi-volume ACE Compressed Format Archive is that the C44 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open C44, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the C44 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 WinACE Archiver

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WinACE Archiver is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name WinACE Archiver into the system search engine. 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 C44 files.

Programs to open C44 file

Remember to download programs supporting C44 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WinACE Archiver with C44 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the C44 file to open in the WinACE Archiver application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the C44 file with the WinACE Archiver application.

Step 3. Update WinACE Archiver to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the WinACE Archiver program, it is possible that Split Multi-volume ACE Compressed Format Archive requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the e-merge GmbH page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the C44 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to C44 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the C44 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected C44 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of C44 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular C44 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting e-merge GmbH, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file C44 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the C44 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
