How to open TKB file?

The main problem with TicketBench Data is that the TKB file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that TKB files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TKB 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 TicketBench

In this case, you should first verify that the TicketBench application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name TicketBench in it. 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 TKB files.

Step 2. Create association of TicketBench with TKB files

If, despite the installed application, the TKB file does not start in the TicketBench application, you must create a file 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 TicketBench application as the default for handling the TKB file.

Step 3. Update TicketBench to the latest version

If, despite the association of the TicketBench program with the TicketBench Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Elk River Systems website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TKB file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the TKB file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TKB or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected TKB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of TKB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TKB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Elk River Systems help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file TKB 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the TKB file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the TKB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TKB file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
