AIC file extension
The AIC file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the AIC files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the AIC file on each system platform.
What is AIC file?
The AIC file has been categorized as Raster Image Files. Additionally, the Raster Image Files category contains 522 of other files. Advanced Image Coding Format is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. This file type can also be opened by 1 other programs. You can use AIC software in case AIC software (AICSetup.exe) cannot be used.
How to open AIC file?
The main problem with Advanced Image Coding Format is that the AIC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file AIC 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 AIC 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 AIC software (AICSetup.exe)
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that AIC software (AICSetup.exe) is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name AIC software (AICSetup.exe) into the 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 AIC files.
Programs to open AIC file
Remember to download programs supporting AIC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of AIC software (AICSetup.exe) with AIC files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AIC file still does not use the AIC software (AICSetup.exe) 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 AIC software (AICSetup.exe) application as the default for handling the AIC file.
Step 3. Update AIC software (AICSetup.exe) to the latest version
If, despite the association of the AIC software (AICSetup.exe) program with the Advanced Image Coding Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AIC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The AIC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to AIC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AIC file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected AIC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of AIC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AIC file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AIC 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move AIC to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the AIC 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AIC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
