What is P29 file?
The P29 file has been categorized as Archive Files. It was designed by Peter B. Clements. In addition to this file, the Archive Files category includes 619 related files. PAR Recovery Volume appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is QuickPar. This was created by Peter B. Clements.
How to open P29 file?
The most common problem when using PAR Recovery Volume is that a specific P29 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open P29, 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 P29 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 QuickPar
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that QuickPar is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name QuickPar in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file P29 with QuickPar. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open P29 files.
Programs to open P29 file
Remember to download programs supporting P29 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of QuickPar with P29 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the P29 file to open in the QuickPar 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the P29 file with the QuickPar application.
Step 3. Update QuickPar to the latest version
If, however, after binding QuickPar with PAR Recovery Volume there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Peter B. Clements website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the P29 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 P29 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to P29 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our P29 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover P29 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the P29 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular P29 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Peter B. Clements, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted P29 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the P29 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the P29 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the P29 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
