How to open OC_ file?
An often recurring problem with Compressed ActiveX Control is that OC_ is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that OC_ files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OC_ 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 Microsoft Windows
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Windows program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Microsoft Windows in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file OC_ with Microsoft Windows. Below you will find a list of applications that support OC_ files.
Programs to open OC_ file
Remember to download programs supporting OC_ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with OC_ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the OC_ file still does not use the Microsoft Windows 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the OC_ file with the Microsoft Windows application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Windows program, it is possible that Compressed ActiveX Control requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OC_ file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the OC_ 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our OC_ file. However, remember that not every infected OC_ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of OC_ 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OC_ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OC_ 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. It is best to move OC_ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the OC_ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file OC_ to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
