What is SLR file?
The file with the extension SLR is the Misc Files file type. The author of this format is Grassland, Soil & Water Research Laboratory. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files. ArcSWAT Solar Radiation Input is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. It is recommended to use SWAT to handle this file. This is a program created by Grassland, Soil & Water Research Laboratory. This file type can also be opened by 1 other programs. ArcView will apply when it is not possible to use SWAT.
How to open SLR file?
An often recurring problem with ArcSWAT Solar Radiation Input is that SLR is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file SLR to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SLR 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 SWAT
The first step is to check if the computer has the SWAT program installed. To do this, enter the name SWAT into the 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 SLR files.
Programs to open SLR file
Remember to download programs supporting SLR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SWAT with SLR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SLR file still does not use the SWAT program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SLR file with the SWAT program.
Step 3. Update SWAT to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the SWAT program, it is possible that ArcSWAT Solar Radiation Input requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Grassland, Soil & Water Research Laboratory page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SLR 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SLR file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SLR file. Sometimes virus-infected SLR 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 SLR 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair SLR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Grassland, Soil & Water Research Laboratory, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SLR 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move SLR 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SLR to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SLR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
