How to open LR file?

An often recurring problem with Chaos Desktop Layer List is that LR is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that LR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LR 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 Chaos desktop

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Chaos desktop is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Chaos desktop into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file LR with Chaos desktop. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open LR files.

Programs to open LR file

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

Step 2. Create association of Chaos desktop with LR files

If, despite the installed application, the LR file does not start in the Chaos desktop application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the LR file with the Chaos desktop program.

Step 3. Update Chaos desktop to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Chaos desktop program with the Chaos Desktop Layer List 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 Adtollo page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LR 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the LR file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our LR file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of LR 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 LR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adtollo help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted LR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the LR file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the LR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file LR to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the LR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
