How to open CCB file?
The most common problem when using Visual Basic Animated Button Configuration is that a specific CCB is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open CCB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CCB 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 Microsoft Visual Basic
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Visual Basic is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Microsoft Visual Basic 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 CCB files.
Programs to open CCB file
Remember to download programs supporting CCB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Visual Basic with CCB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CCB file to open in the Microsoft Visual Basic application, but you can set it manually. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Visual Basic application as the default for handling the CCB file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Visual Basic to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Visual Basic program, it is possible that Visual Basic Animated Button Configuration requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CCB file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The CCB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CCB file. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CCB file. However, remember that not every infected CCB 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 CCB file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CCB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CCB 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CCB to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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 CCB file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
