How to open [B] file?

The main problem with Amiga Paint Image is that the [B] file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that [B] files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the [B] 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 Amiga Forever

In this case, you should first verify that the Amiga Forever application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Amiga Forever into the operating 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 [B] files.

Programs to open [B] file

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

Step 2. Create association of Amiga Forever with [B] files

If, despite the installed application, the [B] file does not start in the Amiga Forever 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 Amiga Forever application as the default for handling the [B] file.

Step 3. Update Amiga Forever to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Amiga Forever program, it is possible that Amiga Paint Image requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Cloanto IT srl page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the [B] 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 [B] file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the [B] file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file [B] or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected [B] file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of [B] file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 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 [B] file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted [B] files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move [B] 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file [B] to close. However, some background programs may block the [B] file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
