How to open !BT file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the !BT 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 BitTorrent

Programs to open !BT file
Remember to download programs supporting !BT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BitTorrent with !BT files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the !BT file to open in the BitTorrent 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 select the desired program. 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 BitTorrent application as the default for handling the !BT file.
Step 3. Update BitTorrent to the latest version
If, however, after binding BitTorrent with BitTorrent Incomplete Download Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the BitTorrent, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the !BT 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 !BT files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the !BT file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover !BT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the !BT 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair !BT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use BitTorrent help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file !BT 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. It is best to move !BT to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the !BT file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
