How to open BL3 file?

The most common problem when using DEGAS Elite Block Format is that a specific BL3 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that BL3 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BL3 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 RECOIL

In this case, you should first verify that the RECOIL application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name RECOIL in it.

Programs to open BL3 file

Remember to download programs supporting BL3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with BL3 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BL3 file to open in the RECOIL application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BL3 file with the RECOIL application.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the RECOIL program with the DEGAS Elite Block Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BL3 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the BL3 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 BL3 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BL3 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 BL3 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BL3 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BL3 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move BL3 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BL3 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
