What is EBC file?

The file with the extension EBC is the Developer Files file type. The author of this format is SourceForge.net. Developer Files consists of 1205 similar files. MediaBASIC Compiled Project is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The MediaBASIC application is recommended to open the file. It was released by SourceForge.net.

How to open EBC file?

The main problem with MediaBASIC Compiled Project is that the EBC file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open EBC, 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 EBC 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 MediaBASIC

The first step is to check if the computer has the MediaBASIC program installed. This can be achieved by typing MediaBASIC 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 EBC with MediaBASIC. Below you will find a list of applications that support EBC files.

Programs to open EBC file

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

Step 2. Create association of MediaBASIC with EBC files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the EBC file to open in the MediaBASIC 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. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the EBC file with the MediaBASIC program.

Step 3. Update MediaBASIC to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the MediaBASIC program, it is possible that MediaBASIC Compiled Project requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the SourceForge.net website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EBC 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 EBC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EBC 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the EBC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EBC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the EBC 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EBC files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SourceForge.net, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EBC 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the EBC file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the EBC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file EBC to close. However, some background programs may block the EBC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
