How to open FGR file?
The most common problem when using FRSGiftRegistry Database is that a specific FGR is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open FGR, 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 FGR 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 FRSGiftRegistry
The first step is to check if the computer has the FRSGiftRegistry program installed. This can be achieved by typing FRSGiftRegistry into the operating 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 FGR files.
Programs to open FGR file
Remember to download programs supporting FGR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FRSGiftRegistry with FGR files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FGR file to open in the FRSGiftRegistry application, but you can set it manually. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FGR file with the FRSGiftRegistry application.
Step 3. Update FRSGiftRegistry to the latest version
If, despite the association of the FRSGiftRegistry program with the FRSGiftRegistry Database 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 Fourth Ray Software website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FGR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The FGR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FGR file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FGR file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FGR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FGR files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FGR file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Fourth Ray Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FGR 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. If possible, you can try to move the FGR file to another location.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FGR file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
