Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 9) appears on 3 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Linux, Mac OS, Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use WinRAR to handle this file. This is a program created by win.rar GmbH. There are also 10 alternative programs to handle the R07 file.

How to open R07 file?

The main problem with Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 9) is that the R07 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file R07 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the R07 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 WinRAR

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WinRAR is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name WinRAR into the system search engine. 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 R07 files.

Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R07 files

If, despite the installed application, the R07 file does not start in the WinRAR 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 R07 file with the WinRAR application.

Step 3. Update WinRAR to the latest version

If, despite the association of the WinRAR program with the Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 9) file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the win.rar GmbH website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the R07 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 R07 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to R07 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the R07 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected R07 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the R07 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair R07 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Eugene Roshal, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file R07 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move R07 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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the R07 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
