How to open P2KC file?

The most common problem when using P2KTools Mod is that a specific P2KC is not associated with the program. This causes the file P2KC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the P2KC 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 P2KTools

Programs to open P2KC file

Remember to download programs supporting P2KC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of P2KTools with P2KC files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the P2KC file to open in the P2KTools application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the P2KTools application as the default for handling the P2KC file.

Step 3. Update P2KTools to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the P2KTools program, it is possible that P2KTools Mod requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the PK2Tools website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the P2KC 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the P2KC file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our P2KC file. Sometimes virus-infected P2KC 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 P2KC files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair P2KC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact PK2Tools
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file P2KC except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the P2KC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file P2KC 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.
