What is UC file?

The file with the extension UC is the Game Files file type. Additionally, the Game Files category contains 1509 of other files. UnrealScript Class is most often found on 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. It is recommended to use UnrealEd to handle this file. This is a program created by Epic Games, Inc..

How to open UC file?

The main problem with UnrealScript Class is that the UC file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open UC, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UC 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 UnrealEd

In this case, you should first verify that the UnrealEd application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing UnrealEd 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 UC.

Programs to open UC file

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

Step 2. Create association of UnrealEd with UC files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UC file still does not use the UnrealEd program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 UC file with the UnrealEd application.

Step 3. Update UnrealEd to the latest version

If, however, after binding UnrealEd with UnrealScript Class there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Epic Games, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. 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 UC file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file UC or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the UC 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted UC 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the UC file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UC file again. However, some background programs may block the UC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
