How to open HBC2 file?
The most common problem when using HyperBac Compressed Format Archive is that a specific HBC2 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open HBC2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HBC2 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 SQL HyperBac
The first step is to check if the computer has the SQL HyperBac program installed. This can be achieved by typing SQL HyperBac into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file HBC2.
Programs to open HBC2 file
Remember to download programs supporting HBC2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SQL HyperBac with HBC2 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the HBC2 file still does not use the SQL HyperBac 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 SQL HyperBac application as the default for handling the HBC2 file.
Step 3. Update SQL HyperBac to the latest version
If, despite the association of the SQL HyperBac program with the HyperBac Compressed Format Archive file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HBC2 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the HBC2 file contents when downloading or copying. 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 HBC2 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HBC2 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 HBC2 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.
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 HBC2 file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted HBC2 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. If possible, you can try to move the HBC2 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the HBC2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HBC2 to close. However, some background programs may block the HBC2 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
