How to open R37 file?

The main problem with Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 39) is that the R37 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file R37 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?

Step 1. Install WinRAR

In this case, you should first verify that the WinRAR application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WinRAR in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file R37.

Programs to open R37 file

Remember to download programs supporting R37 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R37 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the R37 file to open in the WinRAR 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 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the R37 file with the WinRAR program.

Step 3. Update WinRAR to the latest version

If, however, after binding WinRAR with Split Multi-volume RAR Compressed Format Archive (part 39) there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest 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 R37 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the R37 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file R37 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover R37 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 R37 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular R37 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 R37 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move R37 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
