How to open AFG file?

The main problem with Tablet Assembly is that the AFG file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open AFG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AFG 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 Tablet

In this case, you should first verify that the Tablet application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Tablet into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file AFG with Tablet. Below you will find a list of applications that support AFG files.

Programs to open AFG file

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

Step 2. Create association of Tablet with AFG files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AFG file still does not use the Tablet 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the AFG file with the Tablet application.

Step 3. Update Tablet to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Tablet program, it is possible that Tablet Assembly requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the JHI Plant Bioinformatics Group website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AFG 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 AFG file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AFG file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected AFG file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the AFG files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AFG file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use JHI Plant Bioinformatics Group help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AFG 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 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 AFG file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the AFG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
