How to open GBT file?

An often recurring problem with Adobe Photoshop Format is that GBT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open GBT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GBT 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 Adobe Photoshop

In this case, you should first verify that the Adobe Photoshop application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe Photoshop in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file GBT with Adobe Photoshop. Below is a list of programs that support the file GBT.

Programs to open GBT file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe Photoshop with GBT files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GBT file still does not use the Adobe Photoshop 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 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 GBT file with the Adobe Photoshop application.

Step 3. Update Adobe Photoshop to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Adobe Photoshop program, it is possible that Adobe Photoshop Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Adobe Systems Incorporated website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GBT 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the GBT file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GBT file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GBT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of GBT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GBT file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Adobe Systems Incorporated, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GBT 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move GBT to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GBT to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
