How to open R56 file?
An often recurring problem with RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive is that R56 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file R56 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

Step 1. Install WinRAR

Programs to open R56 file
Remember to download programs supporting R56 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R56 files
If, despite the installed application, the R56 file does not start in the WinRAR application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the R56 file with the WinRAR application.
Step 3. Update WinRAR to the latest version
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may also lie with the WinRAR program, it is possible that RAR Compressed Formats From A Multi-volume Archive requires a newer version of the program. 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 R56 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The R56 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the R56 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the R56 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected R56 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the R56 files changes over time. 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular R56 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 R56 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the R56 file to another location.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the R56 file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
