Programs to open BAW file
Remember to download programs supporting BAW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BrainLED AlfaWave with BAW files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BAW file still does not use the BrainLED AlfaWave program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 BAW file with the BrainLED AlfaWave application.
Step 3. Update BrainLED AlfaWave to the latest version
If, despite the association of the BrainLED AlfaWave program with the BrainLED AlfaWave Session file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the BrainLED website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BAW file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The BAW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to BAW files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BAW file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BAW file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BAW files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BAW files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact BrainLED
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BAW 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the BAW file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BAW to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BAW file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
