Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Ashampoo GmbH & Co. KG page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the APCDOC file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The APCDOC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to APCDOC 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the APCDOC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected APCDOC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the APCDOC 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular APCDOC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Ashampoo GmbH & Co. KG
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted APCDOC files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the APCDOC file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the APCDOC 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 APCDOC file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the APCDOC file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
