How to open BFG file?
An often recurring problem with Big Fish Games Application Format is that BFG is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open BFG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BFG 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 CquickTrans

Programs to open BFG file
Remember to download programs supporting BFG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CquickTrans with BFG files
If, despite the installed application, the BFG file does not start in the CquickTrans 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 BFG file with the CquickTrans program.
Step 3. Update CquickTrans to the latest version
If, however, after binding CquickTrans with Big Fish Games Application Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Alexander Schonfeld website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BFG 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BFG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BFG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BFG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BFG file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BFG file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Big Fish Games help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BFG 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. It is best to move BFG to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BFG file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BFG file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
