How to open ESL file?
The main problem with Everest Authoring System Screen Library is that the ESL file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ESL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ESL 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 Everest Authoring System
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Everest Authoring System is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Everest Authoring System in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ESL with Everest Authoring System.

Programs to open ESL file
Remember to download programs supporting ESL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Everest Authoring System with ESL files
If, despite the installed application, the ESL file does not start in the Everest Authoring System application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 Everest Authoring System application as the default for handling the ESL file.
Step 3. Update Everest Authoring System to the latest version
If, however, after binding Everest Authoring System with Everest Authoring System Screen Library there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Intersystem Concepts, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ESL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The ESL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the ESL file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ESL file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ESL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ESL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ESL files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Intersystem Concepts, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ESL except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. If possible, you can try to move the ESL file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ESL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
