How to open EL2 file?

Programs to open EL2 file
Remember to download programs supporting EL2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Easy-PhotoPrint EX with EL2 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EL2 file still does not use the Easy-PhotoPrint EX program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 EL2 file with the Easy-PhotoPrint EX program.
Step 3. Update Easy-PhotoPrint EX to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Easy-PhotoPrint EX program, it is possible that Easy-PhotoPrint EX Stickers requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Canon Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EL2 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 EL2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the EL2 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file EL2 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected EL2 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of EL2 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EL2 files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Canon Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EL2 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 EL2 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. 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 EL2 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
