The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BCG 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 2. Create association of BusinessCards MX with BCG files
If, despite the installed application, the BCG file does not start in the BusinessCards MX application, you must create a file 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. 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 BCG file with the BusinessCards MX program.
Step 3. Update BusinessCards MX to the latest version
If, however, after binding BusinessCards MX with Binary Coded Graph Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the mojosoft page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BCG 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:
The BCG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BCG file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BCG file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BCG file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BCG file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BCG file corruption. 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 BCG 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the BCG file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with 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 BCG to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BCG file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
