How to open 3B file?
The main problem with 3D Coat is that the 3B file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file 3B 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 3B 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 3D Coat
The first step is to check if the computer has the 3D Coat program installed. To do this, enter the name 3D Coat 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 3B files.
Programs to open 3B file
Remember to download programs supporting 3B files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 3D Coat with 3B files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 3B file still does not use the 3D Coat program, it means no association. 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. 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 3B file with the 3D Coat application.
Step 3. Update 3D Coat to the latest version
If, despite the association of the 3D Coat program with the 3D Coat file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the 3D Coat website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 3B 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 3B file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the 3B file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our 3B file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 3B 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 3B file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 3B file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use 3D Coat help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file 3B 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the 3B file to another location.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file 3B to close. However, some background programs may block the 3B file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
