How to open EGPLUGIN file?
An often recurring problem with EventGhost Plugin Format is that EGPLUGIN is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file EGPLUGIN to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the EGPLUGIN 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 EventGhost
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that EventGhost is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing EventGhost into the operating 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 EGPLUGIN files.
Programs to open EGPLUGIN file
Remember to download programs supporting EGPLUGIN files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of EventGhost with EGPLUGIN files
If, despite the installed application, the EGPLUGIN file does not start in the EventGhost application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 EGPLUGIN file with the EventGhost program.
Step 3. Update EventGhost to the latest version
If, however, after binding EventGhost with EventGhost Plugin Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the EventGhost Project page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EGPLUGIN file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to EGPLUGIN 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. 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 EGPLUGIN file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EGPLUGIN 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 EGPLUGIN 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 EGPLUGIN files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , 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 EGPLUGIN 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the EGPLUGIN file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the EGPLUGIN file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the EGPLUGIN file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
