How to open LER file?
An often recurring problem with LopeEdit Results Format is that LER is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file LER to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LER 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 LopeEdit
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that LopeEdit is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing LopeEdit into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open LER files.
Programs to open LER file
Remember to download programs supporting LER files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of LopeEdit with LER files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the LER file to open in the LopeEdit application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the LopeEdit application as the default for handling the LER file.
Step 3. Update LopeEdit to the latest version
If, despite the association of the LopeEdit program with the LopeEdit Results Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the LopeSoft website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LER file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The LER file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to LER files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file LER or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected LER file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the LER file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LER files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LER files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the LER file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
