How to open GGD file?
An often recurring problem with GASTAR Output is that GGD is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that GGD 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 GGD 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 GASTAR
In this case, you should first verify that the GASTAR application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name GASTAR in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support GGD files.
Programs to open GGD file
Remember to download programs supporting GGD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of GASTAR with GGD files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GGD file to open in the GASTAR application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GGD file with the GASTAR program.
Step 3. Update GASTAR to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the GASTAR program, it is possible that GASTAR Output requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the CERC website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GGD file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GGD 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 GGD file. Sometimes virus-infected GGD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of GGD 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GGD file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use CERC help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GGD 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the GGD file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GGD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GGD file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
