How to open R51 file?
The main problem with RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive is that the R51 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that R51 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the R51 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
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. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support R51 files.
Programs to open R51 file
Remember to download programs supporting R51 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R51 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the R51 file still does not use the WinRAR program, it means no 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 select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WinRAR application as the default for handling the R51 file.
Step 3. Update WinRAR to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WinRAR program with the RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the win.rar GmbH website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the R51 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the R51 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the R51 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover R51 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 R51 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged R51 files. 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 indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file R51 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the R51 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R51 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
