What is C00 file?
C00 (C00) is a file extension used by the WinAce archiving program for splitting large archive files into chunks of 1,000K files. This makes it easier to store multiple compressed files on removable media such as CD-ROM, floppy disk, and other digital media. The C00 file type is a part of the multi-part archive file format. In order to extract the original compressed archive, all multi-part files must be reassembled. [ ⏩ ] C00 file extension
How to convert the file from 008 to C00?
To successfully convert the 008 file to C00, 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.008). The next step is to select the target format from the list, in this case C00 (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 C00).
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. 008 to C00. To obtain a matched structure of the data, it is necessary to use an appropriate converter.
Program for converting 008 files to C00 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 C00, while before this step we had the 008 file). For the programs, the difference is on a much higher level – either the application will be able to open a new C00 file, or not.
