How to open UC2 file?
The main problem with UltraCompressor 2 Archive is that the UC2 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file UC2 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UC2 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 UltraCompressor
In this case, you should first verify that the UltraCompressor application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name UltraCompressor in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file UC2 with UltraCompressor. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open UC2 files.
Programs to open UC2 file
Remember to download programs supporting UC2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of UltraCompressor with UC2 files
If, despite the installed application, the UC2 file does not start in the UltraCompressor application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the UC2 file with the UltraCompressor application.
Step 3. Update UltraCompressor to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the UltraCompressor program, it is possible that UltraCompressor 2 Archive requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the AIPNL page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UC2 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 UC2 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UC2 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our UC2 file. However, remember that not every infected UC2 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 UC2 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UC2 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file UC2 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. 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 UC2 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file UC2 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
