Step 2. Create association of HLSW Game Server Tool with SL30 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SL30 file still does not use the HLSW Game Server Tool program, it means no association.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SL30 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The SL30 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SL30 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 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 SL30 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected SL30 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SL30 files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SL30 files. 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 SL30 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the SL30 file to another location will fix the problem.
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 you have to wait for the session to the file SL30 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
