How to open CSC file?

An often recurring problem with 18 Wheels Of Steel: Pedal To The Metal Game is that CSC is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file CSC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CSC 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 Dragon UnPACKer

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Dragon UnPACKer is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Dragon UnPACKer in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support CSC files.

Step 2. Create association of Dragon UnPACKer with CSC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CSC file still does not use the Dragon UnPACKer program, it means no 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the CSC file with the Dragon UnPACKer application.

Step 3. Update Dragon UnPACKer to the latest version

If, however, after binding Dragon UnPACKer with 18 Wheels Of Steel: Pedal To The Metal Game there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Alexandre Devilliers website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the CSC file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CSC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected CSC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of CSC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CSC files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact ValuSoft
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CSC files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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 CSC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CSC to close. 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.
