How to open IBI file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IBI 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 Star Trek Elite Force

The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Star Trek Elite Force in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file IBI.
Programs to open IBI file
Remember to download programs supporting IBI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Star Trek Elite Force with IBI files
If, despite the installed application, the IBI file does not start in the Star Trek Elite Force application, you must create a file 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 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Star Trek Elite Force application as the default for handling the IBI file.
Step 3. Update Star Trek Elite Force to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Star Trek Elite Force program, it is possible that Raven Software ICARUS Compiled Script requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Raven Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IBI file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the IBI 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IBI file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected IBI file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IBI file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair IBI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Raven Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted IBI 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the IBI file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file IBI to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
