An often recurring problem with Elastik Engine Sound Bank is that ELASTIK is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ELASTIK, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ELASTIK 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 Elastik engine

Programs to open ELASTIK file
Remember to download programs supporting ELASTIK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Elastik engine with ELASTIK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ELASTIK file still does not use the Elastik engine program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Elastik engine application as the default for handling the ELASTIK file.
Step 3. Update Elastik engine to the latest version
If, however, after binding Elastik engine with Elastik Engine Sound Bank there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Ueberschall GmbH website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ELASTIK file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ELASTIK file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ELASTIK file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ELASTIK file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ELASTIK 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ELASTIK file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Ueberschall GmbH, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ELASTIK 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 ELASTIK 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ELASTIK file again. However, some background programs may block the ELASTIK file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
