Programs to open CHAPTERS file

Step 2. Create association of ChapterGrabber with CHAPTERS files
If, despite the installed application, the CHAPTERS file does not start in the ChapterGrabber 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. 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 CHAPTERS file with the ChapterGrabber application.
Step 3. Update ChapterGrabber to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ChapterGrabber program, it is possible that ChapterGrabber Data Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the ChapterDb.org website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CHAPTERS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The CHAPTERS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to CHAPTERS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CHAPTERS file. However, remember that not every infected CHAPTERS 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 CHAPTERS files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CHAPTERS files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CHAPTERS 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the CHAPTERS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CHAPTERS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CHAPTERS to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CHAPTERS file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
