These split files may be from R00 to R99 depending on the number of file parts split. These files are usually used by WinRAR for Windows or RAR for Mac and UNIX. But there are also other applications that use the R01 files such as the Corel WinZip 16 Pro for Windows.

Be careful not to rename the extension on .r01 files, or any other files. This will not change the file type. Only special conversion software can change a file from one file type to another.what is a file extension?
A file extension is the set of three or four characters at the end of a filename; in this case, .r01. File extensions tell you what type of file it is, and tell Windows what programs can open it. Windows often associates a default program to each file extension, so that when you double-click the file, the program launches automatically. When that program is no longer on your PC, you can sometimes get an error when you try to open the associated file.leave a comment
