The PART2 file type is primarily associated with WinRAR.
What is a PART2 file?
PART2 files mostly belong to WinRAR. PART2 files are segments of a multi-part RAR archive. They hold part of the data from a larger file that was split into smaller pieces for easier handling.
When you have a PART2 file, it means you are looking at the second segment in the sequence. This file works in tandem with other parts (usually starting with *.PART1) to form the complete archive.
Key details summarized by FilExt.com include:Archive Segment: Each segment contains a portion of the compressed data.

FilExt.com tip: Use WinRAR or a similar tool to combine these segments and extract the complete files. For more details, visit the WinRAR webpage.

PART2 file format:
The file format, which is the arrangement and type of data in a file, determines which program can open the file.

Furthermore, a file extension can be renamed incorrectly and double-clicking on it will then display an error when it is opened.
