Programs to open BL1 file

Remember to download programs supporting BL1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with BL1 files

If, despite the installed application, the BL1 file does not start in the RECOIL 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. 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 BL1 file with the RECOIL program.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BL1 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 BL1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BL1 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BL1 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BL1 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BL1 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BL1 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BL1 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the BL1 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BL1 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BL1 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BL1 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
