How to open AUTH file?
The main problem with ShopSite Store Authorization is that the AUTH file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file AUTH to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AUTH 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 ShopSite
The first step is to check if the computer has the ShopSite program installed. This can be achieved by typing ShopSite into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support AUTH files.
Programs to open AUTH file
Remember to download programs supporting AUTH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ShopSite with AUTH files
If, despite the installed application, the AUTH file does not start in the ShopSite application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the ShopSite application as the default for handling the AUTH file.
Step 3. Update ShopSite to the latest version
If, however, after binding ShopSite with ShopSite Store Authorization there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the ShopSite, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AUTH file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to AUTH 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AUTH file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected AUTH 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 AUTH files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AUTH file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact ShopSite, Inc.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AUTH except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. Copying the AUTH file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AUTH to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AUTH file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
