The file in the KLA format belongs to the Misc Files category. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. KLARFF Map Data Format is most often found on 1 operating systems.

How to open KLA file?

The main problem with KLARFF Map Data Format is that the KLA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that KLA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the KLA 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 RECOIL

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that RECOIL is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name RECOIL into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file KLA with RECOIL. Below you will find a list of applications that support KLA files.

Programs to open KLA file

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

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with KLA files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the KLA file still does not use the RECOIL 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the KLA file with the RECOIL application.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the RECOIL program, it is possible that KLARFF Map Data Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the KLA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file KLA or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected KLA 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 KLA files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair KLA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file KLA 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the KLA file to another location.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the KLA file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
