What is RGBN file?

The file in the RGBN format belongs to the Raster Image Files category. Additionally, the Raster Image Files category contains 522 of other files. TurboSilver Bitmap Image Format is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The RECOIL application is recommended to open the file. It was released by Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga.

How to open RGBN file?

An often recurring problem with TurboSilver Bitmap Image Format is that RGBN is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open RGBN, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RGBN 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 RECOIL

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that RECOIL is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name RECOIL into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open RGBN files.

Programs to open RGBN file

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

Step 2. Create association of RECOIL with RGBN files

If, despite the installed application, the RGBN file does not start in the RECOIL application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 RECOIL application as the default for handling the RGBN file.

Step 3. Update RECOIL to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the RECOIL program, it is possible that TurboSilver Bitmap Image Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Piotr Fusik and Adrian Matoga website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The RGBN file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the RGBN file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RGBN or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RGBN 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 RGBN 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RGBN file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RGBN 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. Copying the RGBN file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RGBN to close. However, some background programs may block the RGBN file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
