How to open BH3 file?

An often recurring problem with Rise Of Nations Unit Graphic is that BH3 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file BH3 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BH3 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 Rise of Nations

Programs to open BH3 file

Remember to download programs supporting BH3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Rise of Nations with BH3 files

If, despite the installed application, the BH3 file does not start in the Rise of Nations 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Rise of Nations application as the default for handling the BH3 file.

Step 3. Update Rise of Nations to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Rise of Nations program, it is possible that Rise Of Nations Unit Graphic requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Studios website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BH3 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The BH3 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BH3 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BH3 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BH3 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BH3 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BH3 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft Studios, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BH3 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BH3 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BH3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BH3 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
