Step 2. Create association of HLSW Game Server Tool with SL14 files

If, despite the installed application, the SL14 file does not start in the HLSW Game Server Tool 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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SL14 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The SL14 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to SL14 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SL14 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected SL14 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of SL14 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SL14 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Stripf Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SL14 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SL14 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SL14 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SL14 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SL14 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
