How to open HBR file?

The main problem with HaxBall Replay is that the HBR file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open HBR, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HBR 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 HaxBall

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that HaxBall is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name HaxBall in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file HBR with HaxBall. Below is a list of programs that support the file HBR.

Programs to open HBR file

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

Step 2. Create association of HaxBall with HBR files

If, despite the installed application, the HBR file does not start in the HaxBall application, you must create a file 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the HBR file with the HaxBall program.

Step 3. Update HaxBall to the latest version

If, despite the association of the HaxBall program with the HaxBall Replay file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Mario Carbajal website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HBR 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the HBR file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our HBR file. However, remember that not every infected HBR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HBR 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HBR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Mario Carbajal, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HBR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 HBR file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HBR to close. 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.
