How to open EGO file?
The main problem with Rollback Rx Drive Image is that the EGO file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open EGO, 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 EGO 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 RollBack Rx
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that RollBack Rx is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name RollBack Rx into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file EGO with RollBack Rx.

Programs to open EGO file
Remember to download programs supporting EGO files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RollBack Rx with EGO files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EGO file still does not use the RollBack Rx program, it means no 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the EGO file with the RollBack Rx application.
Step 3. Update RollBack Rx to the latest version
If, despite the association of the RollBack Rx program with the Rollback Rx Drive Image 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 Horizon DataSys Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EGO file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EGO 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file EGO or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EGO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of EGO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular EGO file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Horizon DataSys Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EGO 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the EGO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the EGO file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the EGO file again. 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.
