How to open FHC file?

The most common problem when using FHC Data Format is that a specific FHC is not associated with the program. This causes the file FHC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FHC 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 Canute FHC

The first step is to check if the computer has the Canute FHC program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Canute FHC in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FHC with Canute FHC. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FHC files.

Programs to open FHC file

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

Step 2. Create association of Canute FHC with FHC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FHC file still does not use the Canute FHC program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FHC file with the Canute FHC program.

Step 3. Update Canute FHC to the latest version

If, however, after binding Canute FHC with FHC Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Canute LLP website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FHC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FHC file. However, remember that not every infected FHC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FHC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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 FHC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Canute help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FHC 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FHC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the FHC 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FHC file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
