Programs to open ASG file
Remember to download programs supporting ASG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Airport Tycoon with ASG files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ASG file to open in the Airport Tycoon 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. 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 ASG file with the Airport Tycoon application.
Step 3. Update Airport Tycoon to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Airport Tycoon program with the Airport Tycoon Saved Game file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Global Star Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ASG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to ASG 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ASG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ASG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ASG file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ASG files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Global Star Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ASG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the ASG file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ASG to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ASG file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
