How to open IDOL file?

An often recurring problem with IDle Object Library Format is that IDOL is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file IDOL to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IDOL 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 IDle

The first step is to check if the computer has the IDle program installed. To do this, enter the name IDle 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 IDOL with IDle. Below is a list of programs that support the file IDOL.

Programs to open IDOL file

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

Step 2. Create association of IDle with IDOL files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the IDOL file to open in the IDle 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the IDle application as the default for handling the IDOL file.

Step 3. Update IDle to the latest version

If, however, after binding IDle with IDle Object Library Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the IDOL file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IDOL file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover IDOL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IDOL file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged IDOL files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted IDOL 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move IDOL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the IDOL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file IDOL to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IDOL file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
