Remember to download programs supporting CLU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror with CLU files
If, despite the installed application, the CLU file does not start in the Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror 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. 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. 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 CLU file with the Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror application.
Step 3. Update Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Broken Sword 2: The Smoking Mirror program, it is possible that Broken Sword 2 Dialogue requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Revolution Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CLU file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CLU 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CLU file. Sometimes virus-infected CLU 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 CLU files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular CLU file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Revolution Software help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file CLU except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. It is best to move CLU to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the CLU file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
