How to open 32X file?
An often recurring problem with Sega 32X ROM is that 32X is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file 32X to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 32X 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 Kega Fusion
In this case, you should first verify that the Kega Fusion application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Kega Fusion in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support 32X files.
Programs to open 32X file
Remember to download programs supporting 32X files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Kega Fusion with 32X files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the 32X file to open in the Kega Fusion 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 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the 32X file with the Kega Fusion application.
Step 3. Update Kega Fusion to the latest version
If, however, after binding Kega Fusion with Sega 32X ROM there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Steve Snake website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 32X 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 32X file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 32X file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our 32X file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 32X 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 32X 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 32X file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file 32X 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 32X file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file 32X to close. However, some background programs may block the 32X file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
