How to open GES file?
The most common problem when using PINGO GrADS Description is that a specific GES is not associated with the program. This causes the file GES 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.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GES 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 PINGO
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PINGO is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name PINGO in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support GES files.
Programs to open GES file
Remember to download programs supporting GES files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of PINGO with GES files
If, despite the installed application, the GES file does not start in the PINGO application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 GES file with the PINGO application.
Step 3. Update PINGO to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the PINGO program, it is possible that PINGO GrADS Description requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Jörg Wegner page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GES 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 GES file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the GES file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 GES file. However, remember that not every infected GES file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GES 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GES file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Jörg Wegner, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GES 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the GES file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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 GES 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.
