Step 2. Create association of HD Tach with HDC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HDC file to open in the HD Tach application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the HDC file with the HD Tach application.
Step 3. Update HD Tach to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the HD Tach program, it is possible that HD Tach Benchmark requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Simpli Software Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HDC file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the HDC file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HDC or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected HDC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of HDC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair HDC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Simpli Software Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted HDC 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the HDC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the HDC file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the HDC file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
