Step 2. Create association of WinRAR with R85 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the R85 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file.

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the R85 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file R85 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected R85 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the R85 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged R85 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Eugene Roshal help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted R85 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the R85 file to another location.
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 R85 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the R85 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
