Step 1. Install HDGraph

Programs to open HDG file
Remember to download programs supporting HDG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of HDGraph with HDG files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the HDG file still does not use the HDGraph 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the HDG file with the HDGraph application.
Step 3. Update HDGraph to the latest version
If, however, after binding HDGraph with HDGraph Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HDG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the HDG file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HDG file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected HDG 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 HDG 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HDG file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file HDG 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move HDG to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the HDG 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 HDG file again. However, some background programs may block the HDG file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
