Another type of file uses the file extension 000 is the Virtual CD ISO format. You almost always see these files with VC4 file.
The Trend Micro antivirus program also uses this extension for the storage format that helps the program to identify new malware threats.
Instead, the file 000 can be a double -compressive file. Microsoft Doublespace (later renamed Drivespace) is a compressive utility used in the old MS-DOS operating system. The file 000 extension is also formatted to be used as part of the Windows CE installation process.
However, other applications can add .000 File extensions for many purposes such as data backup or “partial” file storage.

How to open file 000
It is impossible to open the file 000 as an indexing data file or a compressed file directly but instead, Windows will use when needed.
If the file 000 has a virtual CD ISO format, you can open the file with the Virtual CD program of H+H Software or any other program that identifies exclusive disk formats such as Ultraiso of EZB Systems or Isobuster of Smart Projects.
The Windows CE installation data file is installed for the program used to explain which cabin file in the installation package needs to be installed. There is no good reason to open these types of files.
Although the Trend Micro software also uses the file 000, you can not open it manually by the program. The software will automatically use these files when they are placed in a specific folder in the installation folder of the program.
Any file 000 you find as part of the backup or storage, especially when they are saved with other numbered extensions such as 001, 002, … Use together and combine (may not be compressed) with any backup software or storage utilities that have created them.
If there is no above program to work with the file 000 you have, try opening the file in notepad ++ or some other text editor to see if there is any text that can be read can guide you to the chapter. The program created that file. This may be a particularly useful tip if the file 000 file is only part of the archive or a broken backup, such as a multi -part RAR archive.
How to convert file 000

If you know that file 000 (or 001, 002, etc.) possesses a part of the video or some other large files, then you will need to gather all the numbered extensions that With each other, combine/extract them with any part that has been separated/compressed, then you will have access to the real total file.
Still can't open the file?

00 is a typical example in the case of file 000. It lacks a number and at first glance seems to be related to one of the formats described above.
