The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the R25 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 Norton Ghost
The first step is to check if the computer has the Norton Ghost program installed. To do this, enter the name Norton Ghost 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 R25 files.
Programs to open R25 file
Remember to download programs supporting R25 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Norton Ghost with R25 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the R25 file to open in the Norton Ghost application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the R25 file with the Norton Ghost application.
Step 3. Update Norton Ghost to the latest version
If, however, after binding Norton Ghost with Norton Ghost Rar there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Symantec Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the R25 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to R25 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our R25 file. Sometimes virus-infected R25 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of R25 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular R25 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Symantec Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted R25 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the R25 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R25 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
