How to open TAL file?

An often recurring problem with BrainVoyager QX Talairach Coordinate is that TAL is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open TAL, 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 TAL 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 BrainVoyager QX

In this case, you should first verify that the BrainVoyager QX application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing BrainVoyager QX into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TAL files.

Programs to open TAL file

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

Step 2. Create association of BrainVoyager QX with TAL files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the TAL file still does not use the BrainVoyager QX program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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 BrainVoyager QX application as the default for handling the TAL file.

Step 3. Update BrainVoyager QX to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the BrainVoyager QX program, it is possible that BrainVoyager QX Talairach Coordinate requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Rainer Goebel website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TAL 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to TAL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the TAL file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected TAL file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TAL file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TAL file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Rainer Goebel help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file TAL except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. Copying the TAL 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TAL to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TAL file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
