Remember to download programs supporting SC2BANK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of StarCraft II with SC2BANK files
If, despite the installed application, the SC2BANK file does not start in the StarCraft II application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the StarCraft II application as the default for handling the SC2BANK file.
Step 3. Update StarCraft II to the latest version
If, despite the association of the StarCraft II program with the StarCraft 2 Bank Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Blizzard Entertainment, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SC2BANK file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SC2BANK file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 SC2BANK file. However, remember that not every infected SC2BANK 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 SC2BANK 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SC2BANK file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Blizzard Entertainment
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SC2BANK 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 SC2BANK file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SC2BANK file again. However, some background programs may block the SC2BANK file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
