Step 1. Install Fly!

Programs to open OPA file
Remember to download programs supporting OPA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Fly! with OPA files
If, despite the installed application, the OPA file does not start in the Fly! application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the OPA file with the Fly! application.
Step 3. Update Fly! to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Fly! program, it is possible that Fly! RAW Image Opacity Map requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Terminal Reality website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OPA 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:
The OPA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OPA file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our OPA file. Sometimes virus-infected OPA files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of OPA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OPA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Terminal Reality
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OPA 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move OPA to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the OPA file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. 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 the problem persists, restart the machine.
