How to open I03 file?

An often recurring problem with Split Disk Image is that I03 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file I03 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the I03 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 Alcohol 120%

In this case, you should first verify that the Alcohol 120% application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Alcohol 120% 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 I03 with Alcohol 120%. Below is a list of programs that support the file I03.

Programs to open I03 file

Remember to download programs supporting I03 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Alcohol 120% with I03 files

If, despite the installed application, the I03 file does not start in the Alcohol 120% application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the I03 file with the Alcohol 120% program.

Step 3. Update Alcohol 120% to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Alcohol 120% program with the Split Disk Image 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 Alcohol Soft page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the I03 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The I03 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the I03 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file I03 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected I03 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 I03 file. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair I03 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted I03 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. It is best to move I03 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the I03 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
