How to open ILL file?
The most common problem when using Illust Logic Puzzle is that a specific ILL is not associated with the program. This causes the file ILL 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 ILL 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 Windows Notepad

Programs to open ILL file
Remember to download programs supporting ILL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Windows Notepad with ILL files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ILL file still does not use the Windows Notepad program, it means no association. 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 select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ILL file with the Windows Notepad application.
Step 3. Update Windows Notepad to the latest version
If, however, after binding Windows Notepad with Illust Logic Puzzle there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ILL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ILL file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ILL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ILL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ILL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ILL files. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ILL files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ILL to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ILL file again. However, some background programs may block the ILL file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
