How to open GC2 file?

An often recurring problem with GENECLUSTER GC2 Output Data Format is that GC2 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that GC2 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GC2 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 GENECLUSTER

Step 2. Create association of GENECLUSTER with GC2 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GC2 file to open in the GENECLUSTER application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 GENECLUSTER application as the default for handling the GC2 file.

Step 3. Update GENECLUSTER to the latest version

If, however, after binding GENECLUSTER with GENECLUSTER GC2 Output Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GC2 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to GC2 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GC2 file. Sometimes virus-infected GC2 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GC2 file. 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 option of recovering data from damaged GC2 files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GC2 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the GC2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the GC2 file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
