How to open R09 file?

The most common problem when using Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 11) is that a specific R09 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open R09, 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 R09 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. This can be achieved by typing WinRAR into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open R09 files.

Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R09 files

If, despite the installed application, the R09 file does not start in the WinRAR application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 R09 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 11) 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 R09 file

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

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the R09 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the R09 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover R09 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 R09 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 R09 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Eugene Roshal help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted R09 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 R09 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the R09 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R09 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
