How to open R52 file?

An often recurring problem with RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive is that R52 is not associated with the correct program file.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the R52 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

Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R52 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the R52 file still does not use the WinRAR program, it means no 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 R52 file with the WinRAR program.

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the win.rar GmbH page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the R52 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. Usually this applies to R52 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our R52 file. Sometimes virus-infected R52 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of R52 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged R52 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.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted R52 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the R52 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file R52 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R52 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
