The SLIP file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the SLIP files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the SLIP file on each system platform.
What is SLIP file?
The SLIP file has been categorized as Misc Files. The creator of this file is Embarcadero Technologies, Inc.. Misc Files consists of 6033 similar files. CodeGear Licence appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use C++ Builder to handle this file. This is a program created by Embarcadero Technologies, Inc.. There are also 3 alternative programs to handle the SLIP file. The Delphi, InterBase, JBuilder programs will also handle the file when the C++ Builder program does not fulfill its role.
How to open SLIP file?
The main problem with CodeGear Licence is that the SLIP file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that SLIP files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SLIP file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install C++ Builder
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that C++ Builder is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing C++ Builder into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support SLIP files.
Programs to open SLIP file
Remember to download programs supporting SLIP files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of C++ Builder with SLIP files
If, despite the installed application, the SLIP file does not start in the C++ Builder application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the C++ Builder application as the default for handling the SLIP file.
Step 3. Update C++ Builder to the latest version
If, despite the association of the C++ Builder program with the CodeGear Licence file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SLIP file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The SLIP file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SLIP file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SLIP file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SLIP files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SLIP 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SLIP file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SLIP 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the SLIP file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the SLIP file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SLIP file again. However, some background programs may block the SLIP file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
