What is 002 file?
The 002 file extension is a compressed file from a multi-volume archive. This type of file often contains multiple files or folders that have been compressed into one single file format for simple storage and retrieval. They are commonly used for email attachments, archives, and backing up large amounts of data. To open the 002 file type, any WinZip compatible archive utility will do the trick. Some specific archive programs like 7-Zip, WinRAR, or PeaZip support it. [ ⏩ ] 002 file extension

Software, that you can use to convert
How to convert the file from 002 to RAR?
To successfully convert the 002 file to RAR, you should install one of the applications from the list. After installing the software, open the program and select the file you want to convert (file-name.002). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case RAR (usually converters allow you to convert to several different formats, so check out their features - maybe one of the available formats will suit you more than RAR).
What is a file conversion?
A data conversion is normally an automated process to some extent. The effect of the operation of one program is automatically the input product of another application. If that does not happen we need to help the process a little bit and convert the file on our own, e.g. 002 to RAR. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 002 files to RAR files is a kind of a "binary code translator" compensating for the differences in the code or translating it in such a way so that another application could use it. For us, as users, the visible change will be only another file extension. (After converting the file, it will be the extension RAR, while before this step we had the 002 file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new RAR file, or not.
