The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FLKB 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 Folder Lock

In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FLKB files.
Programs to open FLKB file
Remember to download programs supporting FLKB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Folder Lock with FLKB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FLKB file to open in the Folder Lock 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. 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. 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 FLKB file with the Folder Lock application.
Step 3. Update Folder Lock to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Folder Lock program with the Folder Lock Basic Locker Format 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 NewSoftwares Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FLKB file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The FLKB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FLKB file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FLKB or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FLKB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of FLKB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FLKB file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting NewSoftwares, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FLKB 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. It is best to move FLKB to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FLKB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
