How to open FILA file?

The most common problem when using Aleph One Replay Format is that a specific FILA is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that FILA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FILA 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 Aleph One

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Aleph One is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Aleph One in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FILA with Aleph One. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FILA files.

Programs to open FILA file

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

Step 2. Create association of Aleph One with FILA files

If, despite the installed application, the FILA file does not start in the Aleph One 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. 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. 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 FILA file with the Aleph One application.

Step 3. Update Aleph One to the latest version

If, however, after binding Aleph One with Aleph One Replay Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Bungie.org website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FILA 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to FILA 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 FILA or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FILA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FILA 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FILA file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Bungie Studios help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FILA 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FILA to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FILA file again. However, some background programs may block the FILA file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
