How to open EEP file?
An often recurring problem with Evidence Eliminator Format is that EEP is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file EEP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the EEP 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 Evidence Elminator
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Evidence Elminator is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Evidence Elminator into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support EEP files.
Programs to open EEP file
Remember to download programs supporting EEP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Evidence Elminator with EEP files
If, despite the installed application, the EEP file does not start in the Evidence Elminator 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Evidence Elminator application as the default for handling the EEP file.
Step 3. Update Evidence Elminator to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Evidence Elminator program with the Evidence Eliminator Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Robin Hood Software Ltd. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EEP file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The EEP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to EEP files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the EEP file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected EEP files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the EEP 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EEP files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EEP 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. It is best to move EEP to a different directory.
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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the EEP file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
