How to open FLIC file?

The main problem with Autodesk Animator Animation is that the FLIC file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open FLIC, 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 FLIC 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 Autodesk Animator

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Autodesk Animator is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Autodesk Animator into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FLIC with Autodesk Animator. Below is a list of programs that support the file FLIC.

Programs to open FLIC file

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

Step 2. Create association of Autodesk Animator with FLIC files

If, despite the installed application, the FLIC file does not start in the Autodesk Animator application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Autodesk Animator application as the default for handling the FLIC file.

Step 3. Update Autodesk Animator to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Autodesk Animator program, it is possible that Autodesk Animator Animation requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Autodesk, Inc. website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FLIC file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FLIC or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FLIC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FLIC file. 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 FLIC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FLIC 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move FLIC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FLIC to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
