How to open 4WT file?
The most common problem when using 4D Write Template is that a specific 4WT is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that 4WT files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 4WT 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 4D Write
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that 4D Write is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing 4D Write into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file 4WT.
Programs to open 4WT file
Remember to download programs supporting 4WT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of 4D Write with 4WT files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the 4WT file to open in the 4D Write application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the 4D Write application as the default for handling the 4WT file.
Step 3. Update 4D Write to the latest version
If, despite the association of the 4D Write program with the 4D Write Template 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 4D, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 4WT file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to 4WT files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 4WT file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover 4WT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the 4WT files changes over time. 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 option of recovering data from damaged 4WT files. You can restore the file from a backup or use 4D, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 4WT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 4WT file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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 4WT file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the 4WT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
