How to open ALDF file?
The main problem with Aldefaer Data is that the ALDF file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ALDF, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ALDF 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 Aldfaer

Programs to open ALDF file
Remember to download programs supporting ALDF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Aldfaer with ALDF files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ALDF file still does not use the Aldfaer program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ALDF file with the Aldfaer application.
Step 3. Update Aldfaer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Aldfaer program, it is possible that Aldefaer Data requires a newer version of the program.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 Stichting Aldfaer page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ALDF file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ALDF 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ALDF file. However, remember that not every infected ALDF file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of ALDF 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ALDF file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Stichting Aldfaer help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ALDF 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the ALDF file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ALDF file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
