The .PK2 file extension is associated with the Silkroad Online computer game. It is used to store game data such as settings, resources, and sound files. It is created by the game client and usually contains information exchangeable between characters on a given server.
The Silkroad Online game client generates .PK2 files every time a character’s data is updated, especially when user activities are finished. In addition to storing various types of game data, the files also store information about the accounts associated with the characters played in the game.
Similar Formats
Some other common formats related to PK2 files include: .PKF, .PKS, .SPK, .DAT, and .IND, all of which are used to store or transfer data associated with the game. In some cases, individual servers may have their own specific formats for how related data is stored.
Programs for WINDOWS system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PK2) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .PK2 extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .PK2 file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .PK2 extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .PK2 extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PK2 file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PK2 file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .PK2 file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PK2 file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PK2 file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
