How to open ACT file?
The main problem with ADPCM Compressed Audio Format is that the ACT file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file ACT to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ACT 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 Logipole Konvertor
The first step is to check if the computer has the Logipole Konvertor program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Logipole Konvertor 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 ACT files.
Programs to open ACT file
Remember to download programs supporting ACT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Logipole Konvertor with ACT files
If, despite the installed application, the ACT file does not start in the Logipole Konvertor application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Logipole Konvertor application as the default for handling the ACT file.
Step 3. Update Logipole Konvertor to the latest version
If, however, after binding Logipole Konvertor with ADPCM Compressed Audio Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ACT 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the ACT file contents when downloading or copying. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ACT file. Sometimes virus-infected ACT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ACT file. 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ACT file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ACT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ACT to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ACT 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 ACT file again. However, some background programs may block the ACT file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
