Step 2. Create association of FontEdit with BKW files

If, despite the installed application, the BKW file does not start in the FontEdit application, you must create a file association.

If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed.

Step 3. Update FontEdit to the latest version

If, however, after binding FontEdit with FontEdit Image there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The BKW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BKW file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BKW file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected BKW file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BKW file. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BKW file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BKW 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move BKW to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the BKW file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the BKW file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
