What is UBJ file?

The file in the UBJ format belongs to the Data Files category. It was designed by The Buzz Media. Additionally, the Data Files category contains 1326 of other files. Universal Binary JSON Format is most often found on 3 operating systems. These systems consist of Linux, Mac OS, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. This file type can also be opened by 3 other programs. The Ubjson.NET programs will also handle the file when the Universal Binary JSON program does not fulfill its role.

How to open UBJ file?

The most common problem when using Universal Binary JSON Format is that a specific UBJ is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open UBJ, 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 UBJ 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 Universal Binary JSON

In this case, you should first verify that the Universal Binary JSON application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Universal Binary JSON into the system search engine. 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 UBJ files.

Step 2. Create association of Universal Binary JSON with UBJ files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UBJ file still does not use the Universal Binary JSON 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Universal Binary JSON application as the default for handling the UBJ file.

Step 3. Update Universal Binary JSON to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Universal Binary JSON program with the Universal Binary JSON Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UBJ 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UBJ file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the UBJ file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected UBJ files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the UBJ files changes over time. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged UBJ files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted UBJ files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the UBJ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the UBJ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file UBJ to close. 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.
