Step 2. Create association of Coolect with CALB files

If, despite the installed application, the CALB file does not start in the Coolect application, you must create a file 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the CALB file with the Coolect program.

Step 3. Update Coolect to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Coolect program with the Coolect Album 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 CALB file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't 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 CALB file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CALB file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected CALB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the CALB file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CALB file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CALB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the CALB 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 you have to wait for the session to the file CALB to close. However, some background programs may block the CALB file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
