Programs to open BGO file

Step 2. Create association of BigOven Recipe Software with BGO files
If, despite the installed application, the BGO file does not start in the BigOven Recipe Software application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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.

Step 3. Update BigOven Recipe Software 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 BigOven.com page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BGO file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BGO files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BGO or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BGO 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 BGO files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BGO file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use BigOven.com help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BGO 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. If possible, you can try to move the BGO file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BGO to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BGO file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
