What is BYTES file?
The file in the BYTES format belongs to the Misc Files category. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. Unity Binary Text Asset Data Format 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 Unity. This was created by Unity Technologies.
How to open BYTES file?
An often recurring problem with Unity Binary Text Asset Data Format is that BYTES is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file BYTES to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BYTES 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 Unity
In this case, you should first verify that the Unity application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Unity in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support BYTES files.
Programs to open BYTES file
Remember to download programs supporting BYTES files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Unity with BYTES files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BYTES file still does not use the Unity 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. 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 BYTES file with the Unity program.
Step 3. Update Unity to the latest version
If, however, after binding Unity with Unity Binary Text Asset Data Format 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 Unity Technologies website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BYTES file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BYTES file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BYTES file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected BYTES files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BYTES files changes over time. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BYTES file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BYTES 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the BYTES file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BYTES file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BYTES file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
