Step 2. Create association of Beyond Compare with BCPKG files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BCPKG file to open in the Beyond Compare application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BCPKG 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 BCPKG 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. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BCPKG file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BCPKG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BCPKG files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BCPKG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BCPKG 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BCPKG to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BCPKG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BCPKG 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.
