How to open EL8 file?
The most common problem when using Easy-PhotoPrint EX Disc Label/cover is that a specific EL8 is not associated with the program. This causes the file EL8 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 EL8 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 Easy-PhotoPrint EX

The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Easy-PhotoPrint EX in it.

Programs to open EL8 file
Remember to download programs supporting EL8 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Easy-PhotoPrint EX with EL8 files
If, despite the installed application, the EL8 file does not start in the Easy-PhotoPrint EX 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 set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Easy-PhotoPrint EX application as the default for handling the EL8 file.
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may also lie with the Easy-PhotoPrint EX program, it is possible that Easy-PhotoPrint EX Disc Label/cover requires a newer version of the program.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 EL8 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the EL8 file contents when downloading or copying. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our EL8 file. Sometimes virus-infected EL8 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the EL8 files changes over time. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair EL8 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Canon Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted EL8 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the EL8 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the EL8 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
