How to open PEG file?
The main problem with Peggle Replay Format is that the PEG file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PEG 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 PEG 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 Peggle
In this case, you should first verify that the Peggle application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Peggle into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PEG with Peggle. Below is a list of programs that support the file PEG.
Programs to open PEG file
Remember to download programs supporting PEG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Peggle with PEG files
If, despite the installed application, the PEG file does not start in the Peggle application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PEG file with the Peggle program.
Step 3. Update Peggle to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Peggle program, it is possible that Peggle Replay Format requires a newer version of the program.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 PopCap Games, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PEG file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the PEG file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PEG file. However, remember that not every infected PEG file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of PEG 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PEG file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact PopCap Games
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PEG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PEG to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. 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 this does not work either, restart the device.
