How to open ARLNK file?

An often recurring problem with Ares Galaxy Data Format is that ARLNK is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ARLNK, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ARLNK 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 Ares Galaxy

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Ares Galaxy is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Ares Galaxy 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 ARLNK with Ares Galaxy. Below is a list of programs that support the file ARLNK.

Step 2. Create association of Ares Galaxy with ARLNK files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ARLNK file still does not use the Ares Galaxy 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ARLNK file with the Ares Galaxy program.

Step 3. Update Ares Galaxy to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Ares Galaxy program with the Ares Galaxy Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the SourceForge.net website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ARLNK 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ARLNK file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 ARLNK file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ARLNK 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 ARLNK 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ARLNK file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ARLNK 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the ARLNK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ARLNK 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. However, some background programs may block the ARLNK file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
