It is recommended to use Program Link Software (FA-124) to handle this file. This is a program created by Casio.

How to open G1S file?

An often recurring problem with CASIO Calculator Storage Format is that G1S is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open G1S, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the G1S 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 Program Link Software (FA-124)

In this case, you should first verify that the Program Link Software (FA-124) application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Program Link Software (FA-124) 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 G1S files.

Programs to open G1S file

Remember to download programs supporting G1S files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Program Link Software (FA-124) with G1S files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the G1S file to open in the Program Link Software (FA-124) 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the G1S file with the Program Link Software (FA-124) program.

Step 3. Update Program Link Software (FA-124) to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Program Link Software (FA-124) program with the CASIO Calculator Storage 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 Casio website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the G1S file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to G1S 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file G1S or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover G1S files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the G1S file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular G1S file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , 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 G1S 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move G1S to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the G1S file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
