How to open 103 file?
The main problem with Omnipage Ocr is that the 103 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file 103 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 103 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 OmniPage
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that OmniPage is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name OmniPage in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 103 files.
Programs to open 103 file
Remember to download programs supporting 103 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OmniPage with 103 files
If, despite the installed application, the 103 file does not start in the OmniPage application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the 103 file with the OmniPage program.
Step 3. Update OmniPage to the latest version
If, despite the association of the OmniPage program with the Omnipage Ocr file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Nuance Communications, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 103 file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the 103 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 103 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected 103 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the 103 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 103 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Nuance Communications, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 103 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move 103 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 103 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 103 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
