How to open GBAP file?

This causes the file GBAP to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

Programs to open GBAP file
Remember to download programs supporting GBAP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of GLBasic with GBAP files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GBAP file still does not use the GLBasic program, it means no association. 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 select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the GLBasic application as the default for handling the GBAP file.
Step 3. Update GLBasic to the latest version
If, however, after binding GLBasic with GLBasic Project Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GBAP 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GBAP 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 most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GBAP or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected GBAP 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 GBAP 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GBAP file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GBAP 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move GBAP to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GBAP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GBAP to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
