The AGC file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the AGC files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the AGC file on each system platform.
What is AGC file?
The file with the extension AGC is the Developer Files file type. It was designed by John Bridges. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. Compiled Script is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use AfterGRASP to handle this file. This is a program created by John Bridges.
How to open AGC file?
The main problem with Compiled Script is that the AGC file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open AGC, 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 AGC 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 AfterGRASP
In this case, you should first verify that the AfterGRASP application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name AfterGRASP in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file AGC with AfterGRASP. Below you will find a list of applications that support AGC files.
Programs to open AGC file
Remember to download programs supporting AGC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of AfterGRASP with AGC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the AGC file to open in the AfterGRASP 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the AGC file with the AfterGRASP program.
Step 3. Update AfterGRASP to the latest version
If, however, after binding AfterGRASP with Compiled Script there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the John Bridges page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AGC file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The AGC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AGC file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AGC or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AGC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the AGC file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AGC files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact John Bridges
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted AGC files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. It is best to move AGC to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the AGC 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.
