What is RGH file?

The file with the extension RGH is the Graphic Files file type. In addition to this file, the Graphic Files category includes 524 related files. ZZ RouGH Image appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is XnView. This was created by Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet.

How to open RGH file?

An often recurring problem with ZZ RouGH Image is that RGH is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that RGH 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 RGH 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 XnView

The first step is to check if the computer has the XnView program installed. To do this, enter the name XnView into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open RGH files.

Programs to open RGH file

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

Step 2. Create association of XnView with RGH files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RGH file still does not use the XnView 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 set the program to handle this type. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XnView application as the default for handling the RGH file.

Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version

If, however, after binding XnView with ZZ RouGH Image there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet page and install.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RGH file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RGH file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RGH files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RGH files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RGH file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RGH 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. Copying the RGH 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RGH file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RGH file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
