How to open GE7 file?

An often recurring problem with MSX Screen 7 Picture Image Format is that GE7 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that GE7 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 GE7 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 RECOIL

Programs to open GE7 file

Remember to download programs supporting GE7 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with GE7 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GE7 file still does not use the RECOIL program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the RECOIL application as the default for handling the GE7 file.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the RECOIL program, it is possible that MSX Screen 7 Picture Image Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GE7 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The GE7 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to GE7 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GE7 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected GE7 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GE7 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GE7 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GE7 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. 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 GE7 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the GE7 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
