The HID2 file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the HID2 files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the HID2 file on each system platform.
What is HID2 file?
The file in the HID2 format belongs to the Encoded Files category. In addition to this file, the Encoded Files category includes 236 related files.

How to open HID2 file?
The most common problem when using KeepSafe Encrypted is that a specific HID2 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that HID2 files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HID2 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 KeepSafe
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that KeepSafe is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name KeepSafe into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file HID2 with KeepSafe. Below you will find a list of applications that support HID2 files.
Programs to open HID2 file
Remember to download programs supporting HID2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of KeepSafe with HID2 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HID2 file to open in the KeepSafe application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 HID2 file with the KeepSafe application.
Step 3. Update KeepSafe to the latest version
If, despite the association of the KeepSafe program with the KeepSafe Encrypted 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 HID2 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the HID2 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HID2 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected HID2 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of HID2 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged HID2 files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted HID2 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 HID2 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the HID2 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the HID2 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
