The PIE file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the PIE files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the PIE file on each system platform.
What is PIE file?
The file with the extension PIE is the Settings Files file type. The author of this format is Carl Kenner. Settings Files consists of 1305 similar files. GlovePIE Controller Script appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The GlovePIE application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Carl Kenner.
How to open PIE file?
The main problem with GlovePIE Controller Script is that the PIE file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open PIE, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PIE 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 GlovePIE
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that GlovePIE is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing GlovePIE into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support PIE files.
Programs to open PIE file
Remember to download programs supporting PIE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of GlovePIE with PIE files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PIE file to open in the GlovePIE application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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 PIE file with the GlovePIE program.
Step 3. Update GlovePIE to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the GlovePIE program, it is possible that GlovePIE Controller Script requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Carl Kenner website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PIE 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to PIE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PIE or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PIE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of PIE 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PIE file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Carl Kenner
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PIE 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the PIE file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PIE file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PIE file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
