Programs to open ROCA file
Remember to download programs supporting ROCA files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RIB office with ROCA files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ROCA file still does not use the RIB office 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ROCA file with the RIB office application.
Step 3. Update RIB office to the latest version
If, however, after binding RIB office with RIB Office Compressed Archive 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 RIB Software AG website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ROCA 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 ROCA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the ROCA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ROCA file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ROCA 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 ROCA file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ROCA file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact RIB Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ROCA except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move ROCA to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ROCA file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ROCA file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
