How to open SUL file?
The most common problem when using Gfa Raytrace Image is that a specific SUL is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open SUL, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SUL 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 XnView
The first step is to check if the computer has the XnView program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name XnView in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SUL with XnView. Below is a list of programs that support the file SUL.
Programs to open SUL file
Remember to download programs supporting SUL files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of XnView with SUL files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SUL file to open in the XnView application, but you can set it manually. 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the XnView application as the default for handling the SUL file.
Step 3. Update XnView to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the XnView program, it is possible that Gfa Raytrace Image requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Pierre-Emmanuel Gougelet website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SUL 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SUL file. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SUL file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SUL 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 SUL 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 option of recovering data from damaged SUL files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SUL 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move SUL to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SUL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
