What is BT3 file?

The file with the extension BT3 is the Settings Files file type. The creator of this file is MomSoft. Settings Files consists of 1305 similar files. Control Runner Button Configuration appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is Control Runner. This was created by MomSoft.

How to open BT3 file?

The main problem with Control Runner Button Configuration is that the BT3 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that BT3 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BT3 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 Control Runner

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Control Runner is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Control Runner into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file BT3 with Control Runner. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BT3 files.

Programs to open BT3 file

Remember to download programs supporting BT3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Control Runner with BT3 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BT3 file still does not use the Control Runner program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 Control Runner application as the default for handling the BT3 file.

Step 3. Update Control Runner to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Control Runner program with the Control Runner Button Configuration file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the MomSoft website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BT3 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to BT3 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BT3 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BT3 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BT3 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BT3 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting MomSoft, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BT3 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 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 BT3 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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BT3 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
