Programs to open BYU file
Remember to download programs supporting BYU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ReadMovieBYUFile with BYU files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BYU file to open in the ReadMovieBYUFile application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BYU file with the ReadMovieBYUFile application.
Step 3. Update ReadMovieBYUFile to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ReadMovieBYUFile program with the Movie.BYU Geometry Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BYU file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BYU file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BYU or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BYU files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the BYU 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BYU file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BYU 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BYU to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BYU file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
