How to open IQL file?

An often recurring problem with CADIQ Log Format is that IQL is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open IQL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IQL 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 CADIQ

The first step is to check if the computer has the CADIQ program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CADIQ in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file IQL.

Programs to open IQL file

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

Step 2. Create association of CADIQ with IQL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IQL file still does not use the CADIQ 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. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CADIQ application as the default for handling the IQL file.

Step 3. Update CADIQ to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the CADIQ program, it is possible that CADIQ Log Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the International TechneGroup Incorporated website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to IQL 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 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the IQL file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected IQL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the IQL files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair IQL file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted IQL 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 IQL to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file IQL to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IQL file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
