What is PLL file?

The file with the extension PLL is the Misc Files file type. The creator of this file is Grafx Software Development Tools. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. CA Clipper 5 Prelinked Library is supported by 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The CA-Clipper application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Grafx Software Development Tools.

How to open PLL file?

An often recurring problem with CA Clipper 5 Prelinked Library is that PLL is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that PLL files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PLL 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 CA-Clipper

The first step is to check if the computer has the CA-Clipper program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CA-Clipper in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support PLL files.

Programs to open PLL file

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

Step 2. Create association of CA-Clipper with PLL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PLL file still does not use the CA-Clipper program, it means no 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CA-Clipper application as the default for handling the PLL file.

Step 3. Update CA-Clipper to the latest version

If, however, after binding CA-Clipper with CA Clipper 5 Prelinked Library there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Grafx Software Development Tools website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The PLL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the PLL file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PLL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PLL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PLL file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PLL file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Grafx Software Development Tools help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PLL 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PLL to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PLL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PLL file again. 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.
