How to open FGC file?

The most common problem when using Greeting Card Factory Greeting Card is that a specific FGC is not associated with the program. This causes the file FGC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FGC 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 Greeting Card Factory Deluxe

In this case, you should first verify that the Greeting Card Factory Deluxe application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Greeting Card Factory Deluxe in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FGC files.

Programs to open FGC file

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

Step 2. Create association of Greeting Card Factory Deluxe with FGC files

If, despite the installed application, the FGC file does not start in the Greeting Card Factory Deluxe application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FGC file with the Greeting Card Factory Deluxe application.

Step 3. Update Greeting Card Factory Deluxe to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Greeting Card Factory Deluxe program with the Greeting Card Factory Greeting Card 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 Nova Development Corporation website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the FGC file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FGC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FGC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FGC files changes over time. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FGC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Nova Development Corporation
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FGC 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FGC to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the FGC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FGC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FGC file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
