How to open BLUE file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BLUE 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 Eve Online
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Eve Online is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Eve Online in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support BLUE files.
Programs to open BLUE file
Remember to download programs supporting BLUE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Eve Online with BLUE files
If, despite the installed application, the BLUE file does not start in the Eve Online application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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 BLUE file with the Eve Online program.
Step 3. Update Eve Online to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Eve Online program with the EVE Online Texture 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 CCP page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BLUE 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:
The BLUE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BLUE file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BLUE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected BLUE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BLUE 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BLUE files. You can restore the file from a backup or use CCP help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BLUE 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the BLUE file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the BLUE 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 BLUE file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
