What is 73C file?

The 73C file has been categorized as Data Files. It was designed by Texas Instruments. Data Files consists of 1326 similar files. TI-73 Constant Format appears on 2 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Mac OS, Windows. It is recommended to use TI Connect to handle this file. This is a program created by Texas Instruments Inc.. Alternatively, you can use 1 other programs.

How to open 73C file?

The main problem with TI-73 Constant Format is that the 73C file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open 73C, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 73C 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 TI Connect

In this case, you should first verify that the TI Connect application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name TI Connect into the system search engine. 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 73C files.

Programs to open 73C file

Remember to download programs supporting 73C files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of TI Connect with 73C files

If, despite the installed application, the 73C file does not start in the TI Connect application, you must create a file association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the TI Connect application as the default for handling the 73C file.

Step 3. Update TI Connect to the latest version

If, despite the association of the TI Connect program with the TI-73 Constant Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Texas Instruments Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 73C file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The 73C file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the 73C file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 73C or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected 73C files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of 73C 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular 73C file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Texas Instruments, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted 73C files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the 73C file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file 73C to close. However, some background programs may block the 73C file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
