What is ^^^ file?

The file in the ^^^ format belongs to the Database Files category. It was designed by Pervasive Software. In addition to this file, the Database Files category includes 403 related files. Pervasive.SQL Database Format is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is PSQL. This was created by Pervasive Software Inc..

How to open ^^^ file?

The main problem with Pervasive.SQL Database Format is that the ^^^ file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ^^^ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ^^^ 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 PSQL

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PSQL is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PSQL in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support ^^^ files.

Programs to open ^^^ file

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

Step 2. Create association of PSQL with ^^^ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ^^^ file still does not use the PSQL program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ^^^ file with the PSQL program.

Step 3. Update PSQL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the PSQL program with the Pervasive.SQL Database Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pervasive Software Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ^^^ file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to ^^^ files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ^^^ or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ^^^ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ^^^ files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ^^^ files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Pervasive Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ^^^ 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ^^^ to a different directory.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file ^^^ to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ^^^ file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
