How to open G3X file?
An often recurring problem with RealFlight Content Format is that G3X is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open G3X, 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 G3X 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 RealFlight
In this case, you should first verify that the RealFlight application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name RealFlight in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file G3X.
Programs to open G3X file
Remember to download programs supporting G3X files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RealFlight with G3X files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the G3X file still does not use the RealFlight program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the G3X file with the RealFlight program.
Step 3. Update RealFlight to the latest version
If, however, after binding RealFlight with RealFlight Content Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Knife Edge Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the G3X 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the G3X file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the G3X file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected G3X files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the G3X 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged G3X files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Knife Edge Software help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted G3X 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. If possible, you can try to move the G3X file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the G3X file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the G3X file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the G3X file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
