The Ampac application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Semichem, Inc..
How to open ICI file?
An often recurring problem with Ampac is that ICI is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file ICI to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ICI 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 Ampac
In this case, you should first verify that the Ampac application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Ampac in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file ICI with Ampac. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ICI files.
Programs to open ICI file
Remember to download programs supporting ICI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Ampac with ICI files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ICI file still does not use the Ampac program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 ICI file with the Ampac application.
Step 3. Update Ampac to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Ampac program, it is possible that Ampac requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Semichem, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ICI file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The ICI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ICI 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 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ICI or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ICI files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ICI 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ICI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Semichem, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file ICI 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ICI file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the ICI file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
