Remember to download programs supporting SCACFG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SuperCard Standalone Maker with SCACFG files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SCACFG file to open in the SuperCard Standalone Maker application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the SuperCard Standalone Maker application as the default for handling the SCACFG file.
Step 3. Update SuperCard Standalone Maker to the latest version
If, however, after binding SuperCard Standalone Maker with SuperCard Application Configuration Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SCACFG file

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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SCACFG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SCACFG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SCACFG file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SCACFG files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SCACFG 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the SCACFG file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SCACFG file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SCACFG file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
