How to open BWU file?

An often recurring problem with Blindwrite CD Copier is that BWU is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that BWU files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BWU 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 BlindWrite

The first step is to check if the computer has the BlindWrite program installed. This can be achieved by typing BlindWrite into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BWU files.

Programs to open BWU file

Remember to download programs supporting BWU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of BlindWrite with BWU files

If, despite the installed application, the BWU file does not start in the BlindWrite application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BWU file with the BlindWrite application.

Step 3. Update BlindWrite to the latest version

If, despite the association of the BlindWrite program with the Blindwrite CD Copier file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the VSO-Software page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BWU 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to BWU files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the BWU file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BWU files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BWU file. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BWU file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact VSO-Software
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file BWU 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. It is best to move BWU to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BWU file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BWU file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the BWU file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
