How to open BR2 file?

The most common problem when using Total Commander Cached Button Bar Icons is that a specific BR2 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open BR2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BR2 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 Total Commander

The first step is to check if the computer has the Total Commander program installed. To do this, enter the name Total Commander into the system search engine. 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 BR2 files.

Programs to open BR2 file

Remember to download programs supporting BR2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Total Commander with BR2 files

If, despite the installed application, the BR2 file does not start in the Total Commander 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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 BR2 file with the Total Commander program.

Step 3. Update Total Commander to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Total Commander program with the Total Commander Cached Button Bar Icons file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Ghisler Software GmbH website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BR2 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BR2 file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BR2 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected BR2 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 BR2 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BR2 files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Ghisler Software GmbH
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BR2 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move BR2 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
