Convert 7Z.030 to 002

Understanding 7z.030 and 002 file formats

7z.030 is a split archive segment created by the 7-Zip compression tool. When a large file or folder is compressed and split into multiple parts using 7-Zip, each segment is given a sequential extension such as .7z.001, .7z.002, ..., .7z.030. These segments are not standalone files; they are parts of a single compressed archive and must be joined together to extract the original content.

002 is also a split archive segment, commonly used by various archiving tools like HJSplit, 7-Zip, and WinRAR. The .002 extension typically represents the second part of a split archive. Like .7z.030, it is not a complete file on its own and requires the other segments to reconstruct the original data.

Can you convert 7z.030 to 002?

Direct conversion from 7z.030 to 002 is not meaningful because both are split archive parts, not standalone files or formats. Instead, if you need to change the split archive format (for example, from 7-Zip to HJSplit), you must first recombine all the .7z.0xx parts using 7-Zip to extract the original file, then re-split it using a tool that creates .001, .002, etc. segments.

How to recombine and re-split your archive

1. Ensure you have all parts of the .7z split archive (from .7z.001 to .7z.030).
2. Use 7-Zip to extract the archive:
   • Right-click on the .7z.001 file.
   • Select 7-Zip → Extract Here or 7-Zip → Extract to "folder".
3. After extraction, you will have the original file or folder.
4. To split the file into .001, .002, etc. segments, use a tool like HJSplit or 7-Zip:
   • For HJSplit: Open HJSplit, select Split, choose your file, and set the desired part size.
   • For 7-Zip: Right-click the file, select 7-Zip → Add to archive..., set Split to volumes, bytes (e.g., 100M for 100MB), and choose zip or 7z as the format.

Best software for handling split archives

• 7-Zip (Windows, free): Best for extracting and creating split .7z archives. Download from 7-zip.org.
• HJSplit (Windows, free): Simple tool for splitting and joining files into .001, .002, etc. Download from hjsplit.org.
• WinRAR (Windows, paid): Can also handle split archives and create .part1.rar, .part2.rar, etc.

Summary

There is no direct conversion between 7z.030 and 002 files, as both are parts of split archives. To change formats, extract the original file from the .7z parts using 7-Zip, then re-split it using HJSplit or 7-Zip to create .001, .002, etc. segments.
