This causes the file BSAVE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BSAVE 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 Microsoft QuickBASIC

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft QuickBASIC is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft QuickBASIC into the operating system search engine.

Programs to open BSAVE file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft QuickBASIC with BSAVE files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BSAVE file still does not use the Microsoft QuickBASIC program, it means no 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BSAVE file with the Microsoft QuickBASIC application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft QuickBASIC to the latest version

If, however, after binding Microsoft QuickBASIC with Quickbasic BLOAD/BSAVE Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Microsoft Corporation page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The BSAVE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BSAVE file contents when downloading or copying. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BSAVE file. However, remember that not every infected BSAVE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BSAVE file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BSAVE files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BSAVE 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the BSAVE file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BSAVE to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
