Step 2. Create association of HLSW Game Server Tool with SL28 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SL28 file still does not use the HLSW Game Server Tool program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SL28 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:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the SL28 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SL28 file. However, remember that not every infected SL28 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 SL28 file. 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 SL28 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Stripf Software help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SL28 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the SL28 file to another location.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SL28 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
