How to open ABE file?
The main problem with Application Boundaries Enforcer is that the ABE file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ABE, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ABE 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 Mozilla Firefox
The first step is to check if the computer has the Mozilla Firefox program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Mozilla Firefox in it.

Programs to open ABE file

Step 2. Create association of Mozilla Firefox with ABE files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ABE file still does not use the Mozilla Firefox program, it means no association. 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. 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 Mozilla Firefox application as the default for handling the ABE file.
Step 3. Update Mozilla Firefox to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Mozilla Firefox program with the Application Boundaries Enforcer file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Mozilla website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ABE file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The ABE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ABE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ABE file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected ABE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ABE file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 option of recovering data from damaged ABE files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ABE 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the ABE file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the ABE file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
