How to open AZP file?
An often recurring problem with Close Combat Effect is that AZP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file AZP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AZP 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 Close Combat
The first step is to check if the computer has the Close Combat program installed. This can be achieved by typing Close Combat into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open AZP files.
Programs to open AZP file
Remember to download programs supporting AZP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Close Combat with AZP files
If, despite the installed application, the AZP file does not start in the Close Combat application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Close Combat application as the default for handling the AZP file.
Step 3. Update Close Combat to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Close Combat program with the Close Combat Effect file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Atomic Games, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AZP file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AZP 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. 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 AZP file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AZP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of AZP file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged AZP files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Atomic Games, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AZP 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. If possible, you can try to move the AZP 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the AZP file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
