How to open CAPFILE file?

The main problem with Ruby Capistrano Instruction is that the CAPFILE file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that CAPFILE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CAPFILE 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 Sublime Text

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Sublime Text is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Sublime Text into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CAPFILE files.

Programs to open CAPFILE file

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

Step 2. Create association of Sublime Text with CAPFILE files

If, despite the installed application, the CAPFILE file does not start in the Sublime Text application, you must create a file 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. 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 CAPFILE file with the Sublime Text application.

Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version

If, however, after binding Sublime Text with Ruby Capistrano Instruction there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Sublime HQ Pty Ltd website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The CAPFILE file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to CAPFILE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CAPFILE file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CAPFILE 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 CAPFILE 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CAPFILE file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Ruby community help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CAPFILE files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the CAPFILE file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CAPFILE file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
