How to open S2R file?

An often recurring problem with RegMagik Data Format is that S2R is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file S2R to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the S2R 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 RegmagiK Registry Editor

The first step is to check if the computer has the RegmagiK Registry Editor program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name RegmagiK Registry Editor in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file S2R with RegmagiK Registry Editor. Below is a list of programs that support the file S2R.

Step 2. Create association of RegmagiK Registry Editor with S2R files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the S2R file to open in the RegmagiK Registry Editor application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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 RegmagiK Registry Editor application as the default for handling the S2R file.

Step 3. Update RegmagiK Registry Editor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the RegmagiK Registry Editor program, it is possible that RegMagik Data Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Boris Guzner page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S2R file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the S2R file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our S2R file. However, remember that not every infected S2R 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 S2R file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair S2R file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted S2R 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move S2R to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the S2R file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
