CARE-S InfoWorks User Defined Pollutant Detail appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use CARE-S to handle this file.

How to open C11 file?

The most common problem when using CARE-S InfoWorks User Defined Pollutant Detail is that a specific C11 is not associated with the program. This causes the file C11 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 C11 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 CARE-S

In this case, you should first verify that the CARE-S application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing CARE-S 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 C11 with CARE-S. Below you will find a list of applications that support C11 files.

Programs to open C11 file

Remember to download programs supporting C11 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of CARE-S with C11 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the C11 file still does not use the CARE-S program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 CARE-S application as the default for handling the C11 file.

Step 3. Update CARE-S to the latest version

If, however, after binding CARE-S with CARE-S InfoWorks User Defined Pollutant Detail there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the SINTEF page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the C11 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the C11 file contents when downloading or copying. 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our C11 file. Sometimes virus-infected C11 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the C11 file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged C11 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SINTEF, 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 C11 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. Copying the C11 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the C11 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
