How to open BBK file?
An often recurring problem with TreePad Backup is that BBK is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open BBK, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BBK 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 TreePad
The first step is to check if the computer has the TreePad program installed. This can be achieved by typing TreePad 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 BBK with TreePad. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BBK files.
Programs to open BBK file
Remember to download programs supporting BBK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TreePad with BBK files
If, despite the installed application, the BBK file does not start in the TreePad 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BBK file with the TreePad program.
Step 3. Update TreePad to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the TreePad program, it is possible that TreePad Backup requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Freebyte.com website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BBK file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BBK file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BBK or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BBK files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BBK files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BBK file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BBK 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 BBK file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BBK to close. 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.
