How to open AIRPORTS file?

This causes the file AIRPORTS 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 AIRPORTS 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 RealFlight
The first step is to check if the computer has the RealFlight program installed. This can be achieved by typing RealFlight into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open AIRPORTS files.
Programs to open AIRPORTS file
Remember to download programs supporting AIRPORTS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RealFlight with AIRPORTS files
If, despite the installed application, the AIRPORTS file does not start in the RealFlight application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 AIRPORTS file with the RealFlight application.
Step 3. Update RealFlight to the latest version
If, however, after binding RealFlight with RealFlight Airports Data there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Knife Edge Software website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AIRPORTS 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 AIRPORTS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AIRPORTS file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our AIRPORTS file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AIRPORTS 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 AIRPORTS 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AIRPORTS file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Knife Edge Software help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file AIRPORTS 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. Copying the AIRPORTS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the AIRPORTS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AIRPORTS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
