What is DBAG file?

The file with the extension DBAG is the Misc Files file type. The author of this format is SYNAMETIRCS. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. WinSQL DataBag is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The main program that supports this format is WinSQL. This was created by SYNAMETIRCS.

How to open DBAG file?

The main problem with WinSQL DataBag is that the DBAG file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DBAG, 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 DBAG 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 WinSQL

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WinSQL is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WinSQL in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open DBAG files.

Programs to open DBAG file

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

Step 2. Create association of WinSQL with DBAG files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DBAG file to open in the WinSQL 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. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the DBAG file with the WinSQL program.

Step 3. Update WinSQL to the latest version

If, despite the association of the WinSQL program with the WinSQL DataBag file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the SYNAMETIRCS website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DBAG 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 DBAG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to DBAG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DBAG file. However, remember that not every infected DBAG 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 DBAG file. 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 DBAG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SYNAMETIRCS, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DBAG 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the DBAG file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DBAG 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 the problem persists, restart the machine.
