How to open BANK file?
The main problem with Darkest Dungeon Sound Data Format is that the BANK file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open BANK, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BANK 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 Darkest Dungeon
In this case, you should first verify that the Darkest Dungeon application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Darkest Dungeon 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 BANK with Darkest Dungeon. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BANK files.
Programs to open BANK file
Remember to download programs supporting BANK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Darkest Dungeon with BANK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BANK file still does not use the Darkest Dungeon program, it means no 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 select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BANK file with the Darkest Dungeon program.
Step 3. Update Darkest Dungeon to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Darkest Dungeon program, it is possible that Darkest Dungeon Sound Data Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Red Hook Studios page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BANK file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BANK file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BANK file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BANK files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of BANK file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BANK files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BANK 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.
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. It is best to move BANK 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BANK file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BANK file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
