How to open BUC file?
The most common problem when using Adobe Photoshop Elements Backup is that a specific BUC is not associated with the program. This causes the file BUC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BUC 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 Adobe Photoshop Elements
In this case, you should first verify that the Adobe Photoshop Elements application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Adobe Photoshop Elements into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file BUC.
Programs to open BUC file
Remember to download programs supporting BUC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe Photoshop Elements with BUC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BUC file to open in the Adobe Photoshop Elements application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BUC file with the Adobe Photoshop Elements program.
Step 3. Update Adobe Photoshop Elements to the latest version
If, however, after binding Adobe Photoshop Elements with Adobe Photoshop Elements Backup there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BUC file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BUC 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BUC file. However, remember that not every infected BUC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of BUC 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 BUC files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Adobe Systems Incorporated, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BUC 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.
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 BUC 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BUC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BUC file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
