How to open ABK files
If you cannot open the ABK file on your computer - there may be several reasons. The first and most important reason (the most common) is the lack of a suitable software that supports ABK among those that are installed on your device.
A very simple way to solve this problem is to find and download the appropriate application. The first part of the task has already been done – the software supporting the ABK file can be found in the table. Now just download and install the appropriate application.
Possible problems with the ABK format files
The inability to open and operate the ABK file does not necessarily mean that you do not have an appropriate software installed on your computer. There may be other problems that also block our ability to operate the Ability Write Backup Format file. Below is a list of possible problems.
- Corruption of a ABK file which is being opened
- Incorrect links to the ABK file in registry entries.
- Accidental deletion of the description of the ABK from the Windows registry
- Incomplete installation of an application that supports the ABK format
- The ABK file which is being opened is infected with an undesirable malware.
- The computer does not have enough hardware resources to cope with the opening of the ABK file.
- Drivers of equipment used by the computer to open a ABK file are out of date.
If you are sure that all of these reasons do not exist in your case (or have already been eliminated), the ABK file should operate with your programs without any problem. If the problem with the ABK file has not been solved, it may be due to the fact that in this case there is also another rare problem with the ABK file. In this case, the only you can do is to ask for assistance of a professional staff.

If you want to associate a file with a new program (e.g. my-file.ABK) you have two ways to do it. The first and the easiest one is to right-click on the selected ABK file. From the drop-down menu select 'Choose default program', then click 'Browse' and find the desired program. The whole operation must be confirmed by clicking OK. The second and more difficult to do is associate the ABK file extension to the corresponding software in the Windows Registry.
Is there one way to open unknown files?Many files contain only simple text data. It is possible that while opening unknown files (e.g. ABK) with a simple text editor like Windows Notepad will allow us to see some of the data encoded in the file. This method allows you to preview the contents of many files, but probably not in such a structure as a program dedicated to support them.

Hi All,
I installed Arena and the best free engines around (the likes of Houdini, Stockfish, Critter, Bouquet, IvanHoe and Strelka). Now I am planning to add some decent opening books, preferably in abk.format. I read somewhere that there is a work-around for other formats like bin and ctg, to make them compatible with Arena, but I'm not sure where I read it and how to do such precisely.
So basically my first question is which abk.books I should definitely pick. Can anyone make me a suggestion within a list of 5?
Some sites I found are these:
for the former site, one needs a log-in, but I'm still waiting for approval
Apparently some contests are held to decide on the best books around in a shared engine, different opening book battle e.g.: http://www.raitpref.ru/ct-arena-file.htm
Thus, so far I consider to get Fauzi_2.2.abk, TriA+JK 1.6.1L+.abk, King-fighter.abk, planetgaia5.5e_mainbook.abk
I'm not certain about my selection though. Fauzi and TriA seem keepers to me, but the rest is open to debate.
This brings me back to my first question of course about 5 suggestions.
Related to this I have another question. Are there any books in bin. or ctg.format worth considering? And if that's the case, how can I convert them to abk.format or get a work-around? I noticed a gambit-book and Nc6 on the team Brazil page, which I would like to have for instance.

Any advise would be welcome.
Thank you in advance.
