Step 2. Create association of Adobe PageMaker with 8U files

The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 8U 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. Usually this applies to 8U files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 8U file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 8U file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the 8U files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
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 8U files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Adobe Systems Incorporated
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 8U 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. Copying the 8U file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the 8U file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the 8U file again. 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.
