How to open S7P file?

An often recurring problem with SubSeven Trojan is that S7P is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file S7P 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 S7P 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 ESET Nod32 Antivirus

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that ESET Nod32 Antivirus is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ESET Nod32 Antivirus in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file S7P with ESET Nod32 Antivirus. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open S7P files.

Step 2. Create association of ESET Nod32 Antivirus with S7P files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the S7P file to open in the ESET Nod32 Antivirus application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 S7P file with the ESET Nod32 Antivirus program.

Step 3. Update ESET Nod32 Antivirus to the latest version

If, despite the association of the ESET Nod32 Antivirus program with the SubSeven Trojan file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the ESET, LLC website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the S7P file

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

The S7P file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to S7P files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the S7P file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected S7P files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the S7P file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
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 S7P file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file S7P 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.
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 S7P to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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 S7P to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
