What is CCS file?

The CCS file has been categorized as Misc Files. The creator of this file is inData Corporation. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files.

The main program that supports this format is TrialDirector. This was created by inData Corporation.

How to open CCS file?

An often recurring problem with TrialDirector Clip Script Format is that CCS is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that CCS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CCS 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 TrialDirector

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that TrialDirector is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing TrialDirector into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file CCS.

Programs to open CCS file

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

Step 2. Create association of TrialDirector with CCS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CCS file to open in the TrialDirector application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the CCS file with the TrialDirector program.

Step 3. Update TrialDirector to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the TrialDirector program, it is possible that TrialDirector Clip Script Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the inData Corporation website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CCS 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 CCS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CCS file. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CCS or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CCS 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 CCS files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CCS files. You can restore the file from a backup or use inData Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CCS 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 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. Copying the CCS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 CCS file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
