How to open ANC file?

An often recurring problem with Alphacam NC Program is that ANC is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ANC, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ANC 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 Alphacam

In this case, you should first verify that the Alphacam application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Alphacam 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. Below you will find a list of applications that support ANC files.

Programs to open ANC file

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

Step 2. Create association of Alphacam with ANC files

If, despite the installed application, the ANC file does not start in the Alphacam 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ANC file with the Alphacam application.

Step 3. Update Alphacam to the latest version

If, however, after binding Alphacam with Alphacam NC Program there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Planit Solutions Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ANC file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ANC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. 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 ANC file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ANC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the ANC 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ANC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Planit Solutions Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ANC 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ANC 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. 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 ANC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
