How to open GS1 file?

An often recurring problem with Genecyst Save State 1 is that GS1 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that GS1 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GS1 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 Genecyst

The first step is to check if the computer has the Genecyst program installed. To do this, enter the name Genecyst into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open GS1 files.

Programs to open GS1 file

Remember to download programs supporting GS1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Genecyst with GS1 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GS1 file to open in the Genecyst 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 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 GS1 file with the Genecyst application.

Step 3. Update Genecyst to the latest version

If, however, after binding Genecyst with Genecyst Save State 1 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 Bloodlust Software page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GS1 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the GS1 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GS1 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GS1 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GS1 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged GS1 files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Bloodlust Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file GS1 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move GS1 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the GS1 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 GS1 file again. However, some background programs may block the GS1 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
