How to open ES2 file?

The most common problem when using E-Studio 2.0 Experiment Format is that a specific ES2 is not associated with the program. This causes the file ES2 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ES2 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 Tools E-Prime

The first step is to check if the computer has the Tools E-Prime program installed. To do this, enter the name Tools E-Prime into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ES2 files.

Programs to open ES2 file

Remember to download programs supporting ES2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Tools E-Prime with ES2 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ES2 file still does not use the Tools E-Prime program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ES2 file with the Tools E-Prime application.

Step 3. Update Tools E-Prime to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Tools E-Prime program with the E-Studio 2.0 Experiment Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ES2 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ES2 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ES2 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ES2 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ES2 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ES2 files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ES2 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the ES2 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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ES2 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ES2 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
