How to open SUBLIME-BUILD file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SUBLIME-BUILD 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 Sublime Text

Programs to open SUBLIME-BUILD file

Remember to download programs supporting SUBLIME-BUILD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Sublime Text with SUBLIME-BUILD files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SUBLIME-BUILD file still does not use the Sublime Text program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 Sublime Text application as the default for handling the SUBLIME-BUILD file.

Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Sublime Text program, it is possible that Sublime Text Build requires a newer version of the program.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 Sublime HQ Pty Ltd page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SUBLIME-BUILD file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to SUBLIME-BUILD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SUBLIME-BUILD or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SUBLIME-BUILD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SUBLIME-BUILD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SUBLIME-BUILD files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Sublime HQ Pty Ltd help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SUBLIME-BUILD 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. Copying the SUBLIME-BUILD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SUBLIME-BUILD file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SUBLIME-BUILD file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
