Opening ELF Files without Executable and Linkable Format File, Tasklink for Windows Machine Control Executable and Linking Format, or Playstation Executable/Game Data File Software Installed
Different software packages tend to sometimes share similar file types. Executable and Linkable Format File, Tasklink for Windows Machine Control Executable and Linking Format, and Playstation Executable/Game Data File are some of the popular programs that use the ELF file extension, so you should be able to use any of these three to open your file. You might even be able to find others by doing a quick Google search.
A word of warning, though. Be sure to scan any free software you download with a malware checker before running it on your computer.
If You Have Executable and Linkable Format File, Tasklink for Windows Machine Control Executable and Linking Format, or Playstation Executable/Game Data File Installed
If one of these software packages are already installed on your PC, but it still won't work to open your ELF file, you might have to check that the file associations are correct. Right-click on the file, select "Open With...", and then select Executable and Linkable Format File, Tasklink for Windows Machine Control Executable and Linking Format, or Playstation Executable/Game Data File. That will create an association between the ELF file extension and your chosen software.
Your ELF Might Be Corrupt
Finally, if you're still having issues opening your ELF file, download the file again or ask the sender to resend it. It's possible that your ELF file might be corrupt. As a last resort, contact the software developers to see if they may be of further assistance.
Here's a list of ELF-related software programs and their developers:
| Software | Developer |
|---|---|
| Executable and Linkable Format File | PC Software Company |
| Tasklink for Windows Machine Control Executable and Linking Format | Microsoft Programmer |
| Playstation Executable/Game Data File | Sony Corporation of America |
