Issue: You Can't Open ALB Files

You might've double-clicked on the file, to be greeted with the "Choose a program to open the file" message. In some cases, you might be able to open the file, but the contents may seem garbled and that's because it was written to be opened in a specific program. Of course, you can't open a ALB file with just any software. Not to worry - we have you covered!

Step 1: Find Out Which Software Uses ALB Files

Computer Files

Opening your ALB file starts with understanding which software uses a ALB extension. In many cases, different types of software may use the same file extensions, also known as file associations.

Photo Soap2 File, Alpha Five Data Dictionary, and Web Easy Album are the most popular software packages that use ALB files. Therefore, your best bet would be to download one of these software packages and use one of them to open your file.
