How to open QFC file?
The most common problem when using QuickFileCollection Archive is that a specific QFC is not associated with the program. This causes the file QFC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the QFC 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 QuickFileCollection
In this case, you should first verify that the QuickFileCollection application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name QuickFileCollection into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file QFC with QuickFileCollection. Below you will find a list of applications that support QFC files.
Programs to open QFC file
Remember to download programs supporting QFC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of QuickFileCollection with QFC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the QFC file to open in the QuickFileCollection application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the QuickFileCollection application as the default for handling the QFC file.
Step 3. Update QuickFileCollection to the latest version
If, despite the association of the QuickFileCollection program with the QuickFileCollection Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the George Lyapko website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the QFC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to QFC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the QFC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected QFC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of QFC 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged QFC files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting George Lyapko, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file QFC 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. It is best to move QFC to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file QFC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the QFC file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
