Programs to open B27 file

Remember to download programs supporting B27 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Ovation Pro with B27 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the B27 file still does not use the Ovation Pro program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Ovation Pro application as the default for handling the B27 file.

If, however, after binding Ovation Pro with Ovation Pro For RISC OS Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the David Pilling website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the B27 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to B27 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file B27 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected B27 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the B27 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular B27 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact David Pilling
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted B27 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the B27 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the B27 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
