How to open IGG file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IGG 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 SuiteProfiler

Programs to open IGG file
Remember to download programs supporting IGG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SuiteProfiler with IGG files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IGG file still does not use the SuiteProfiler program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 IGG file with the SuiteProfiler application.
Step 3. Update SuiteProfiler to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the SuiteProfiler program, it is possible that SuiteProfiler Color Map Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Dana Foy website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IGG file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the IGG file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IGG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected IGG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of IGG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair IGG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Dana Foy, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted IGG 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the IGG file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the IGG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the IGG file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IGG file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
