What is IS file?

The file in the IS format belongs to the Audio Files category. In addition to this file, the Audio Files category includes 771 related files.

This is a program created by Cloanto IT srl.

How to open IS file?

The main problem with InStereo Audio is that the IS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file IS 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 IS 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 Amiga Forever

In this case, you should first verify that the Amiga Forever application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Amiga Forever in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file IS.

Programs to open IS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Amiga Forever with IS files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IS file still does not use the Amiga Forever program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the IS file with the Amiga Forever program.

Step 3. Update Amiga Forever to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Amiga Forever program, it is possible that InStereo Audio requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Cloanto IT srl website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the IS 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 IS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the IS file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our IS file. Sometimes virus-infected IS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IS file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair IS file corruption. 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 file IS 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the IS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 IS file again. However, some background programs may block the IS file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
