How to open JDC file?

An often recurring problem with JDownloader Links Format is that JDC is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file JDC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the JDC 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 JDownloader

The first step is to check if the computer has the JDownloader program installed. To do this, enter the name JDownloader into the system search engine. 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 JDC.

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

Step 2. Create association of JDownloader with JDC files

If, despite the installed application, the JDC file does not start in the JDownloader application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the JDC file with the JDownloader program.

Step 3. Update JDownloader to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the JDownloader program, it is possible that JDownloader Links Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Jdownloader Team page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the JDC 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. Usually this applies to JDC files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the JDC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover JDC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the JDC files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 JDC files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact The JDownloader Team
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file JDC 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. It is best to move JDC 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the JDC file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the JDC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
