Step 2. Create association of Amazon Software Downloader with AZD files

If, despite the installed application, the AZD file does not start in the Amazon Software Downloader 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the AZD file with the Amazon Software Downloader application.

Step 3. Update Amazon Software Downloader to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Amazon Software Downloader program, it is possible that Amazon Software Download requires a newer version of the program.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 Amazon.com, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AZD file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AZD file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AZD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected AZD 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 AZD 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AZD file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Amazon.com, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file AZD 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 AZD file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AZD file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
