Programs to open A2B file
Remember to download programs supporting A2B files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Tracker II with A2B files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the A2B file to open in the Tracker II application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the A2B file with the Tracker II program.
Step 3. Update Tracker II to the latest version
If, however, after binding Tracker II with Adlib Tracker II Instrument Bank there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the A2B 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. This suggests truncating the A2B file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 A2B or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected A2B file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of A2B 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular A2B file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file A2B 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the A2B file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the A2B file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the A2B file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
