How to open TIC file?
The main problem with TruKnox Cache is that the TIC file is incorrectly associated with programs.

This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TIC 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 Tru-Designer
In this case, you should first verify that the Tru-Designer application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Tru-Designer 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. Below is a list of programs that support the file TIC.
Programs to open TIC file
Remember to download programs supporting TIC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Tru-Designer with TIC files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TIC file to open in the Tru-Designer application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the TIC file with the Tru-Designer application.
Step 3. Update Tru-Designer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Tru-Designer program with the TruKnox Cache file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the TruKnox Technologies page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TIC file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The TIC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the TIC file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our TIC file. However, remember that not every infected TIC file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of TIC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular TIC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 file TIC 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the TIC file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the TIC 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 TIC file again. 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.
