How to open GI! file?
An often recurring problem with GigaSampler/GigaStudio Split is that GI! is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file GI! to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GI! 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 Awave Studio
The first step is to check if the computer has the Awave Studio program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Awave Studio 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 GI! files.
Programs to open GI! file
Remember to download programs supporting GI! files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Awave Studio with GI! files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GI! file to open in the Awave Studio 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the GI! file with the Awave Studio program.
Step 3. Update Awave Studio to the latest version
If, however, after binding Awave Studio with GigaSampler/GigaStudio Split there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the FMJ-Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GI! 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GI! file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GI! or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected GI! files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GI! files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GI! file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GI! 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the GI! file to another location will fix the problem.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
