How to open HQL file?

The most common problem when using Microsoft Windows Azure Data Query Format is that a specific HQL is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open HQL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HQL 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 Microsoft Windows Azure

The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Windows Azure program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Microsoft Windows Azure in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support HQL files.

Programs to open HQL file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows Azure with HQL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the HQL file still does not use the Microsoft Windows Azure program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the HQL file with the Microsoft Windows Azure application.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows Azure to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Windows Azure program, it is possible that Microsoft Windows Azure Data Query Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HQL file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to HQL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the HQL file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected HQL 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 HQL 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 HQL file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file HQL 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the HQL file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 HQL file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
