Step 2. Create association of Charles Web Debugging Proxy with AMF0 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the AMF0 file to open in the Charles Web Debugging Proxy 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 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 set the program to handle this type. 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.

If, despite the association of the Charles Web Debugging Proxy program with the Charles AMF Dump Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AMF0 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. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AMF0 file. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AMF0 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected AMF0 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 AMF0 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AMF0 file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted AMF0 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move AMF0 to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AMF0 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
