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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BDIC file with the Google Chrome program.

Step 3. Update Google Chrome to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Google Chrome program, it is possible that Chrome Dictionary Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Google Inc. website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BDIC 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 BDIC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BDIC file contents when downloading or copying. 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 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 BDIC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BDIC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BDIC file. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BDIC files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Google
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BDIC files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 BDIC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BDIC file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
