How to open S05 file?

An often recurring problem with Split Multi-volume ZipSplitter Compressed Format Archive (part 6) is that S05 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open S05, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the S05 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 ZipSplitter

Programs to open S05 file

Remember to download programs supporting S05 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of ZipSplitter with S05 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the S05 file still does not use the ZipSplitter program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the S05 file with the ZipSplitter application.

Step 3. Update ZipSplitter to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the ZipSplitter program, it is possible that Split Multi-volume ZipSplitter Compressed Format Archive (part 6) requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Lithops Software website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S05 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the S05 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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 S05 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected S05 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 S05 files changes over time. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular S05 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Lithops Software help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted S05 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. It is best to move S05 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the S05 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the S05 file again. However, some background programs may block the S05 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
