How to open DO2 file?

The main problem with Resident Evil 2 Door is that the DO2 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open DO2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DO2 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 Resident Evil

In this case, you should first verify that the Resident Evil application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Resident Evil into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open DO2 files.

Programs to open DO2 file

Remember to download programs supporting DO2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Resident Evil with DO2 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DO2 file still does not use the Resident Evil program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Resident Evil application as the default for handling the DO2 file.

Step 3. Update Resident Evil to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Resident Evil program with the Resident Evil 2 Door file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Capcom Co., Ltd. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DO2 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The DO2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the DO2 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 DO2 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected DO2 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of DO2 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged DO2 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DO2 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the DO2 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
