How to open CB1 file?

The most common problem when using CARE-S InfoWorks Biochemical Oxygen Detail is that a specific CB1 is not associated with the program. This causes the file CB1 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 CB1 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

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that CARE-S is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name CARE-S into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CB1 files.

Programs to open CB1 file

Remember to download programs supporting CB1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of CARE-S with CB1 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CB1 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the CB1 file with the CARE-S application.

Step 3. Update CARE-S to the latest version

If, despite the association of the CARE-S program with the CARE-S InfoWorks Biochemical Oxygen Detail file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the SINTEF website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CB1 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 suggests truncating the CB1 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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 CB1 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected CB1 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of CB1 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CB1 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact SINTEF
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file CB1 except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move CB1 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CB1 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CB1 to close. However, some background programs may block the CB1 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
