What is FILETABLELOCK file?

The FILETABLELOCK file has been categorized as Misc Files. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. Eclipse Lock Data Format is most often found on 3 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Linux, Mac OS, Windows. The main program that supports this format is Eclipse.

How to open FILETABLELOCK file?

The most common problem when using Eclipse Lock Data Format is that a specific FILETABLELOCK is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open FILETABLELOCK, 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 FILETABLELOCK 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 Eclipse

The first step is to check if the computer has the Eclipse program installed. This can be achieved by typing Eclipse into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support FILETABLELOCK files.

Programs to open FILETABLELOCK file

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

Step 2. Create association of Eclipse with FILETABLELOCK files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FILETABLELOCK file to open in the Eclipse application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Eclipse application as the default for handling the FILETABLELOCK file.

Step 3. Update Eclipse to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Eclipse program with the Eclipse Lock Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the The Eclipse Foundation website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The FILETABLELOCK file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to FILETABLELOCK files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FILETABLELOCK or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FILETABLELOCK files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FILETABLELOCK file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FILETABLELOCK file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FILETABLELOCK 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the FILETABLELOCK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FILETABLELOCK file again. However, some background programs may block the FILETABLELOCK file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
