How to open LIGHTINGLIBRARY file?

An often recurring problem with Corel Painter Lighting Presets Format is that LIGHTINGLIBRARY is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file LIGHTINGLIBRARY 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 LIGHTINGLIBRARY 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 Corel Painter

In this case, you should first verify that the Corel Painter application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Corel Painter into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support LIGHTINGLIBRARY files.

Programs to open LIGHTINGLIBRARY file

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

Step 2. Create association of Corel Painter with LIGHTINGLIBRARY files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LIGHTINGLIBRARY file still does not use the Corel Painter program, it means no 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 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 LIGHTINGLIBRARY file with the Corel Painter program.

Step 3. Update Corel Painter to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Corel Painter program, it is possible that Corel Painter Lighting Presets Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Corel Corporation website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LIGHTINGLIBRARY file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our LIGHTINGLIBRARY file. Sometimes virus-infected LIGHTINGLIBRARY files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of LIGHTINGLIBRARY file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 ability to automatically repair LIGHTINGLIBRARY file corruption. 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.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file LIGHTINGLIBRARY 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the LIGHTINGLIBRARY file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the LIGHTINGLIBRARY file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 this does not work either, restart the device.
