.R30 File Recovery

The file extension .R30 is typically associated with split archive files in the RAR format. RAR is a file compression and archiving format commonly used to compress and combine multiple files into a single archive file. When a large archive is split into smaller parts, each part is given a sequential number as an extension, such as .R00, .R01, .R02, and so on. Therefore, .R30 represents the thirtieth part of a split RAR archive.

To identify the program or software used to create a .R30 file, you can try the following methods:

1. File Extension: Check the file extension (.R30) and see if it matches any known file types associated with specific programs. However, .R30 is not a common file extension, so this method may not yield accurate results.
2. File Metadata: Right-click on the file, go to "Properties," and navigate to the "Details" or "Metadata" tab. Look for any information about the software or program used to create the file. Sometimes, the file metadata may contain clues about the program used.
3. Online File Type Identifier: Use an online file type identifier tool. Several websites offer free services to identify unknown file types. Upload the .R30 file to one of these websites, and it will analyze the file to determine the associated program or software.
4. Contact the Source: If you received the .R30 file from someone else, reach out to them and ask about the program they used to create it. They may be able to provide information or clarify the file's origin.
5. Trial and Error: If none of the above methods work, you can try opening the .R30 file with various programs that support different file formats. Start with commonly used programs like WinRAR, 7-Zip, or other file compression utilities. If the file opens successfully, it may indicate that it is a compressed or archived file.

Remember to exercise caution when opening files from unknown sources and ensure that you have proper security measures in place to protect against potential threats.

.R30 files are part of a split archive created using WinRAR, a popular file compression and archiving tool. To access the contents of a .R30 file, you can use the following methods or tools:

1. WinRAR: The most straightforward way is to use WinRAR itself. If you have all the split archive files (such as .R00, .R01, .R02, etc.) in the same directory, you can simply right-click on the .R00 file and select "Extract Here" or "Extract Files" to open and extract the contents of the entire split archive.
2. 7-Zip: Another popular file archiver, 7-Zip, can also handle .R30 files. Right-click on the .R00 file and select "7-Zip" from the context menu, then choose "Extract Here" or "Extract Files" to access the contents.
3. WinMount: This tool is specifically designed to mount various archive formats as virtual drives. You can use WinMount to mount the .R30 file as a virtual drive, and then access its contents as if it were a regular folder.
4. HJSplit: If the .R30 file is part of a larger split archive created with HJSplit, you will need to use HJSplit itself to join the split files back together. Open HJSplit, select the option to join files, and locate the .R00 file. HJSplit will automatically detect the other split files and merge them into a single archive, allowing you to access its contents.

Note: It's worth mentioning that .R30 files are usually associated with multi-volume archives, so you may need all the split files (.R00, .R01, .R02, etc.) to properly extract the contents.
