How to open LBF file?
An often recurring problem with Bioshock 2 Configuration is that LBF is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that LBF files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LBF 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 Bioshock 2
The first step is to check if the computer has the Bioshock 2 program installed. This can be achieved by typing Bioshock 2 into the operating system search engine.

Programs to open LBF file
Remember to download programs supporting LBF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Bioshock 2 with LBF files
If, despite the installed application, the LBF file does not start in the Bioshock 2 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 LBF file with the Bioshock 2 program.
Step 3. Update Bioshock 2 to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Bioshock 2 program with the Bioshock 2 Configuration file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the 2K Games website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LBF 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 LBF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the LBF file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 LBF file. However, remember that not every infected LBF 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 LBF 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LBF files. You can restore the file from a backup or use 2K Games help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LBF 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move LBF to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. 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 LBF file again. However, some background programs may block the LBF file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
