How to open LEV file?
The main problem with Worms Map is that the LEV file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open LEV, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LEV 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 Worms World Party
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Worms World Party is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Worms World Party 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 LEV with Worms World Party. Below is a list of programs that support the file LEV.
Programs to open LEV file
Remember to download programs supporting LEV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Worms World Party with LEV files
If, despite the installed application, the LEV file does not start in the Worms World Party application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Worms World Party application as the default for handling the LEV file.
Step 3. Update Worms World Party to the latest version
If, however, after binding Worms World Party with Worms Map there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Team17 Software Limited website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LEV 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the LEV file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the LEV file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected LEV 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 LEV 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LEV files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Team17 Software Limited help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LEV 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the LEV file to another location.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LEV file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
