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

Step 2. Create association of Ultra Librarian Reader with BXL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BXL file still does not use the Ultra Librarian Reader program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BXL file with the Ultra Librarian Reader program.

Step 3. Update Ultra Librarian Reader to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Ultra Librarian Reader program, it is possible that Accelerated Designs PCB Library Format requires a newer version of the program.

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

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

The BXL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the BXL file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BXL file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BXL files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of BXL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BXL file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BXL 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. Copying the BXL file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BXL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file BXL to close. However, some background programs may block the BXL file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
