Step 2. Create association of Crick Software Clicker with CLKX files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CLKX file to open in the Crick Software Clicker 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. 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.

If, however, after binding Crick Software Clicker with Clicker Grid Set there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Crick Software Ltd. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CLKX 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 CLKX file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the CLKX file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CLKX file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected CLKX 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 CLKX 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CLKX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Crick Software
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CLKX 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. Copying the CLKX file to another location will fix the problem.
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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CLKX file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CLKX file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
