How to open ASDB file?
The main problem with Asphyre Sphinx Archive Format is that the ASDB file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ASDB files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ASDB 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 Asphyre Sphinx
In this case, you should first verify that the Asphyre Sphinx application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Asphyre Sphinx in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ASDB with Asphyre Sphinx. Below is a list of programs that support the file ASDB.
Programs to open ASDB file
Remember to download programs supporting ASDB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Asphyre Sphinx with ASDB files
If, despite the installed application, the ASDB file does not start in the Asphyre Sphinx 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 set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Asphyre Sphinx application as the default for handling the ASDB file.
Step 3. Update Asphyre Sphinx to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Asphyre Sphinx program, it is possible that Asphyre Sphinx Archive Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Afterwarp Development page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ASDB 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ASDB file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ASDB file. Sometimes virus-infected ASDB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ASDB 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ASDB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Afterwarp Development help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ASDB 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ASDB to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ASDB to close. However, some background programs may block the ASDB file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
