Step 2. Create association of Eschalon: Book I with OPQ files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the OPQ file still does not use the Eschalon: Book I program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the OPQ file with the Eschalon: Book I application.
Step 3. Update Eschalon: Book I to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Eschalon: Book I program, it is possible that Eschalon: Book I Game requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Basilisk Games page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OPQ file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. 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 OPQ file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file OPQ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected OPQ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the OPQ files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OPQ file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Basilisk Games help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OPQ 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move OPQ to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the OPQ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OPQ file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
