How to open CT8 file?
The main problem with CaseMap Case Template is that the CT8 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open CT8, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CT8 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 CaseMap
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that CaseMap is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing CaseMap into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file CT8 with CaseMap. Below is a list of programs that support the file CT8.
Programs to open CT8 file
Remember to download programs supporting CT8 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CaseMap with CT8 files
If, despite the installed application, the CT8 file does not start in the CaseMap application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 CT8 file with the CaseMap application.
Step 3. Update CaseMap to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the CaseMap program, it is possible that CaseMap Case Template requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the LexisNexis website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CT8 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the CT8 file contents when downloading or copying. 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 CT8 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected CT8 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the CT8 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CT8 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting LexisNexis, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CT8 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. If possible, you can try to move the CT8 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. 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.
