File Extension PAR

File type: (.P01,...)

Notes about the PAR file extension:

Errors in your registry are one of the common causes for incorrect file associations on your windows system. It is highly recommended that you check your registry for file association errors (will also check for any other registry errors).

The PAR file type is primarily associated with 'Parity Volume Sets'. Using parity volumes primarily allows one to recreate missing volumes from a set of files regardless of which file is missing and assuming that you have at least one parity volume for every missing file. Parity volumes are unique only to their specified file set. If the number of files missing exceeds the number of parity volumes it won't work.
