How to open CCH file?

Step 2. Create association of PhotoModeler with CCH files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CCH file still does not use the PhotoModeler program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 CCH file with the PhotoModeler application.
Step 3. Update PhotoModeler to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PhotoModeler program, it is possible that Photomodeler Photochip Thumbnail Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Eos Systems Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CCH file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to CCH files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CCH file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected CCH 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 CCH files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CCH files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Eos Systems Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CCH 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CCH to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the CCH file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CCH file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
