How to open J2L file?
The most common problem when using Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Level Format is that a specific J2L is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open J2L, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the J2L 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 Jazz Jackrabbit 2
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Jazz Jackrabbit 2 is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Jazz Jackrabbit 2 into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open J2L files.
Programs to open J2L file
Remember to download programs supporting J2L files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Jazz Jackrabbit 2 with J2L files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the J2L file still does not use the Jazz Jackrabbit 2 program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the J2L file with the Jazz Jackrabbit 2 program.
Step 3. Update Jazz Jackrabbit 2 to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Jazz Jackrabbit 2 program, it is possible that Jazz Jackrabbit 2 Level Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Epic Games, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the J2L 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 J2L file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the J2L file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 J2L file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover J2L 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 J2L file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair J2L file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Epic Games
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted J2L 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 J2L to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the J2L file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
