What is GOC file?

The GOC file has been categorized as Developer Files. The creator of this file is Berkeley Softworks. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. GEOS GOC Source Code appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use GEOS to handle this file. This is a program created by Berkeley Softworks.

How to open GOC file?

The main problem with GEOS GOC Source Code is that the GOC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that GOC files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GOC 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 GEOS

In this case, you should first verify that the GEOS application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name GEOS in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open GOC files.

Programs to open GOC file

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

Step 2. Create association of GEOS with GOC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GOC file still does not use the GEOS program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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 GOC file with the GEOS application.

Step 3. Update GEOS to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the GEOS program, it is possible that GEOS GOC Source Code requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Berkeley Softworks website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GOC 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GOC 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GOC or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GOC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the GOC 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GOC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Berkeley Softworks help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GOC 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move GOC to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the GOC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the GOC file again. However, some background programs may block the GOC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
