Remember to download programs supporting R55 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R55 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the R55 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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 fault may also lie with the WinRAR program, it is possible that RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive requires a newer version of the program. 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 R55 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the R55 file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the R55 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected R55 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of R55 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged R55 files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Eugene Roshal
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file R55 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 R55 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the R55 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 R55 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
