The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RULESET file with the Microsoft Visual Studio program.

If, however, after binding Microsoft Visual Studio with Visual Studio Code Analysis Rule Set Format 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 Microsoft Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RULESET file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The RULESET file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the RULESET file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RULESET or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected RULESET file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RULESET file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 RULESET file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted RULESET 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move RULESET 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RULESET file again. However, some background programs may block the RULESET file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
