An often recurring problem with Actuate Analytics is that CB4 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open CB4, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CB4 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.

Programs to open CB4 file

Remember to download programs supporting CB4 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Actuate Analytics with CB4 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CB4 file to open in the Actuate Analytics application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Actuate Analytics application as the default for handling the CB4 file.

Step 3. Update Actuate Analytics to the latest version

If, however, after binding Actuate Analytics with Actuate Analytics 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 Actuate Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CB4 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CB4 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 CB4 file. However, remember that not every infected CB4 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the CB4 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CB4 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Actuate Corporation help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CB4 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. If possible, you can try to move the CB4 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CB4 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 CB4 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CB4 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
