Step 2. Create association of Guitar Hero 3 with SGH files

If, despite the installed application, the SGH file does not start in the Guitar Hero 3 application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed.

This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Activision website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SGH 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to SGH 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. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SGH file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected SGH files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SGH 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SGH files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Activision
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SGH 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 SGH to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SGH file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
