What is LIR file?

The file with the extension LIR is the Settings Files file type. The author of this format is Applied Digital. In addition to this file, the Settings Files category includes 1305 related files. ADI Ocelot Settings appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use C-Max to handle this file. This is a program created by Applied Digital.

How to open LIR file?

The main problem with ADI Ocelot Settings is that the LIR file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open LIR, 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 LIR 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 C-Max

In this case, you should first verify that the C-Max application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name C-Max into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open LIR files.

Programs to open LIR file

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

Step 2. Create association of C-Max with LIR files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LIR file still does not use the C-Max 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 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the LIR file with the C-Max program.

Step 3. Update C-Max to the latest version

If, despite the association of the C-Max program with the ADI Ocelot Settings file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Applied Digital page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The LIR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the LIR 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the LIR file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected LIR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of LIR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LIR file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Applied Digital
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LIR 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move LIR to a different directory.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file LIR to close. However, some background programs may block the LIR file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
