How to open CEDF file?

The most common problem when using TC Configuration Editor Data Format is that a specific CEDF is not associated with the program. This causes the file CEDF to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CEDF 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 Total Commander

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Total Commander is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Total Commander into the operating 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 CEDF files.

Programs to open CEDF file

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

Step 2. Create association of Total Commander with CEDF files

If, despite the installed application, the CEDF file does not start in the Total Commander application, you must create a file 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 CEDF file with the Total Commander program.

Step 3. Update Total Commander to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Total Commander program, it is possible that TC Configuration Editor Data Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Ghisler Software GmbH website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CEDF 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 CEDF file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CEDF or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected CEDF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the CEDF file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CEDF file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CEDF 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the CEDF file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CEDF to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CEDF file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
