Programs to open CL2DOC file

Remember to download programs supporting CL2DOC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Comic Life with CL2DOC files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CL2DOC file to open in the Comic Life application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the CL2DOC file with the Comic Life application.

Step 3. Update Comic Life to the latest version

If, however, after binding Comic Life with Comic Life 2 Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the plasq page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CL2DOC file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The CL2DOC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CL2DOC file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CL2DOC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected CL2DOC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the CL2DOC files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CL2DOC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Plasq, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CL2DOC 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move CL2DOC to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CL2DOC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
