How to open EKB file?
The main problem with VisualTablet Data is that the EKB file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open EKB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the EKB 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 VisualTablet
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VisualTablet is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name VisualTablet into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file EKB.
Programs to open EKB file
Remember to download programs supporting EKB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VisualTablet with EKB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the EKB file to open in the VisualTablet 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. 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 EKB file with the VisualTablet application.
Step 3. Update VisualTablet to the latest version
If, despite the association of the VisualTablet program with the VisualTablet Data 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 Zak Morris Company, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EKB file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The EKB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EKB file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 EKB file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover EKB 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 EKB file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair EKB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Zak Morris Company, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EKB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the EKB file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the EKB 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.
