How to open FO2 file?
The main problem with Borland Turbo C Font is that the FO2 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open FO2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FO2 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 Turbo C
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Turbo C is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Turbo C 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 FO2 with Turbo C. Below you will find a list of applications that support FO2 files.
Programs to open FO2 file
Remember to download programs supporting FO2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Turbo C with FO2 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FO2 file to open in the Turbo C application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 FO2 file with the Turbo C application.
Step 3. Update Turbo C to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Turbo C program, it is possible that Borland Turbo C Font requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FO2 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The FO2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FO2 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FO2 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FO2 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FO2 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FO2 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Embarcadero Technologies, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FO2 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the FO2 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FO2 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FO2 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
