Programs to open C4S file
Remember to download programs supporting C4S files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Clonk with C4S files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the C4S file still does not use the Clonk program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the C4S file with the Clonk application.
Step 3. Update Clonk to the latest version
If, however, after binding Clonk with Clonk Game Scenario there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the RedWolf Design GmbH website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the C4S file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to C4S files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the C4S file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected C4S file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of C4S 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged C4S files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting RedWolf Design GmbH, 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 C4S 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the C4S file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the C4S file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the C4S file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
