How to open 21W file?

The most common problem when using Snood Preferences is that a specific 21W is not associated with the program. This causes the file 21W 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 21W 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 Snood

In this case, you should first verify that the Snood application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Snood into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open 21W files.

Programs to open 21W file

Remember to download programs supporting 21W files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Snood with 21W files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the 21W file still does not use the Snood program, it means no 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 21W file with the Snood program.

Step 3. Update Snood to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Snood program, it is possible that Snood Preferences requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the WOM Games page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 21W file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the 21W file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file 21W or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 21W files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of 21W 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair 21W file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting WOM Games, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file 21W except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. Copying the 21W file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
