How to open ASB file?

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

Programs to open ASB file

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

Step 2. Create association of Alphacam with ASB files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ASB file to open in the Alphacam application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ASB file with the Alphacam application.

Step 3. Update Alphacam to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Alphacam program, it is possible that Alphacam Stone VB Macro Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Planit Solutions Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The ASB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ASB file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 ASB file. Sometimes virus-infected ASB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ASB file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 ASB file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Planit, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ASB 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the ASB file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ASB to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
