The BOCHSRC file has been categorized as Settings Files. It was designed by The Bochs Project. Additionally, the Settings Files category contains 1305 of other files.

How to open BOCHSRC file?
An often recurring problem with Bochs Configuration is that BOCHSRC is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open BOCHSRC, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BOCHSRC file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install Bochs
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Bochs is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Bochs into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BOCHSRC files.
Programs to open BOCHSRC file
Remember to download programs supporting BOCHSRC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Bochs with BOCHSRC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BOCHSRC file to open in the Bochs application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BOCHSRC file with the Bochs program.
Step 3. Update Bochs to the latest version
If, however, after binding Bochs with Bochs Configuration 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 The Bochs Project website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BOCHSRC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The BOCHSRC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BOCHSRC file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BOCHSRC file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BOCHSRC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BOCHSRC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BOCHSRC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact The Bochs Project
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BOCHSRC except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the BOCHSRC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BOCHSRC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. 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.
