How to open ABD file?

An often recurring problem with The Bat! Mail Processing System is that ABD is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that ABD 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 ABD 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 The Bat!

The first step is to check if the computer has the The Bat! program installed. This can be achieved by typing The Bat! 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 ABD files.

Step 2. Create association of The Bat! with ABD files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ABD file to open in the The Bat! 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 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the The Bat! application as the default for handling the ABD file.

Step 3. Update The Bat! to the latest version

If, however, after binding The Bat! with The Bat! Mail Processing System there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the RITLabs SRL website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ABD 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ABD file. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ABD or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ABD 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 ABD files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ABD file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact RITLabs SRL
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ABD 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ABD to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ABD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ABD 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.
