How to open ESCO file?

The main problem with Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 7 Firmware is that the ESCO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file ESCO to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ESCO 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 Nokia Care Suite

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Nokia Care Suite is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Nokia Care Suite into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file ESCO.

Programs to open ESCO file

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

Step 2. Create association of Nokia Care Suite with ESCO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ESCO file to open in the Nokia Care Suite application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ESCO file with the Nokia Care Suite program.

Step 3. Update Nokia Care Suite to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Nokia Care Suite program, it is possible that Nokia Lumia Windows Phone 7 Firmware requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Nokia Corporation page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ESCO file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ESCO file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ESCO file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ESCO file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ESCO file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Nokia Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ESCO 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the ESCO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ESCO file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ESCO file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
