How to open ERP file?

An often recurring problem with Alter Ego Game Archive is that ERP is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that ERP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ERP 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 Alter Ego

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Alter Ego is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Alter Ego into the operating 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 ERP.

Programs to open ERP file

Remember to download programs supporting ERP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Alter Ego with ERP files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ERP file still does not use the Alter Ego 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 Alter Ego application as the default for handling the ERP file.

Step 3. Update Alter Ego to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Alter Ego program with the Alter Ego Game Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Future Games website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ERP file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ERP file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ERP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ERP 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 ERP file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ERP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Future Games help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ERP 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move ERP to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ERP to close. However, some background programs may block the ERP file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
