Step 2. Create association of with UTB files

If, despite the installed application, the UTB file does not start in the application, you must create a file association.

If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the UTB file with the program.

Step 3. Update to the latest version

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UTB file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our UTB file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UTB files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of UTB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UTB file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted UTB 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the UTB file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the UTB file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
