Step 2. Create association of Adobe Photoshop with 8BPF files

If, despite the installed application, the 8BPF file does not start in the Adobe Photoshop application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 8BPF file with the Adobe Photoshop application.

In this case, use the Adobe Systems Incorporated website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 8BPF file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The 8BPF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to 8BPF files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 8BPF or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected 8BPF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of 8BPF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged 8BPF files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems Incorporated help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 8BPF 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the 8BPF file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 8BPF file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
