How to open BD2 file?
The most common problem when using Lacerte Tax Tax is that a specific BD2 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BD2 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BD2 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 Lacerte Tax
In this case, you should first verify that the Lacerte Tax application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Lacerte Tax in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file BD2 with Lacerte Tax.

Programs to open BD2 file
Remember to download programs supporting BD2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Lacerte Tax with BD2 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BD2 file to open in the Lacerte Tax 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BD2 file with the Lacerte Tax application.
Step 3. Update Lacerte Tax to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Lacerte Tax program, it is possible that Lacerte Tax Tax requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Intuit Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BD2 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The BD2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BD2 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BD2 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BD2 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of BD2 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BD2 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Intuit Inc., 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 BD2 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BD2 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BD2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BD2 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BD2 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
