What is POC file?

The POC file has been categorized as Developer Files. The author of this format is Poco Systems Inc. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. Pocomail PocoScript appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use PocoMail to handle this file. This is a program created by Poco Systems Inc.

How to open POC file?

An often recurring problem with Pocomail PocoScript is that POC is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file POC 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 POC 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 PocoMail

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PocoMail is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing PocoMail into the operating system search engine. 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 POC files.

Programs to open POC file

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

Step 2. Create association of PocoMail with POC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the POC file still does not use the PocoMail program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 POC file with the PocoMail program.

Step 3. Update PocoMail to the latest version

If, however, after binding PocoMail with Pocomail PocoScript there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Poco Systems Inc website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the POC 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 suggests truncating the POC file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file POC or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected POC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the POC 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair POC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Poco Systems Inc help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted POC 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. It is best to move POC to a different directory.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the POC file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
