How to open PBE file?

The main problem with Proton Plus Compiler is that the PBE file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PBE to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PBE 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 Proton Plus Compiler

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Proton Plus Compiler is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Proton Plus Compiler in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PBE with Proton Plus Compiler. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open PBE files.

Programs to open PBE file

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

Step 2. Create association of Proton Plus Compiler with PBE files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PBE file still does not use the Proton Plus Compiler program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Proton Plus Compiler application as the default for handling the PBE file.

Step 3. Update Proton Plus Compiler to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Proton Plus Compiler program with the Proton Plus Compiler file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Crownhill Associates Limited website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PBE file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to PBE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PBE or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PBE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PBE file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged PBE files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Crownhill Associates Limited
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PBE 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the PBE 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PBE to close. 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.
