The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GPBANK 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 Guitar Pro

Step 2. Create association of Guitar Pro with GPBANK files
If, despite the installed application, the GPBANK file does not start in the Guitar Pro application, you must create a file association. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Guitar Pro application as the default for handling the GPBANK file.
Step 3. Update Guitar Pro to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Guitar Pro program, it is possible that Guitar Pro Sound Bank Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Arobas Music website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GPBANK file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The GPBANK file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to GPBANK 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GPBANK file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected GPBANK 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 GPBANK files changes over time. 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 option of recovering data from damaged GPBANK files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Arobas Music help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GPBANK 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.
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 GPBANK file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GPBANK 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 GPBANK file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
