How to open BSW file?
An often recurring problem with Business Scorecard Manager Workspace is that BSW is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open BSW, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BSW 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 Business Scorecard Manager 2005
In this case, you should first verify that the Business Scorecard Manager 2005 application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Business Scorecard Manager 2005 into the system search engine.

Remember to download programs supporting BSW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Business Scorecard Manager 2005 with BSW files
If, despite the installed application, the BSW file does not start in the Business Scorecard Manager 2005 application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Business Scorecard Manager 2005 application as the default for handling the BSW file.
Step 3. Update Business Scorecard Manager 2005 to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Business Scorecard Manager 2005 program, it is possible that Business Scorecard Manager Workspace requires a newer version of the program. 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 BSW 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BSW file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BSW file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BSW 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 BSW file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BSW file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft Corporation
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BSW 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the BSW file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BSW to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BSW file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
