Ask for another copy of the file. Subassembly composer won't open it.

@tcoreymy question is exactly how do i open this file with SAC? and i know it wont open this file directly since the file is corrupted. this is my only file its corrupted because of the power issue while the file was still opened i now only  have only this corrupted file. you can see .pkt file contents by opening a working .pkt file with either 7z or winrar and you will get about 7 different items(files) when i try to open my archive there is a file in the .pkt with extension .atc but i don't know how to get this .pkt start working.

Well if you have anything that could help me about this issue i would love to try it. thank you

a pkt file is a zip file, so you could use any zip program to open it up and view the contents.  You wouldnt be able to edit it.   The majority of the information for the subassembly is stored in the dll file.  Your pkt file only contains the atc file, which means, as Tim said, you're out of luck, you need to get access to a back up or the original.
