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.

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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GBCK or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected GBCK files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of GBCK 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GBCK file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Glarysoft Ltd.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GBCK 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move GBCK to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GBCK 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 GBCK file again. However, some background programs may block the GBCK file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
