Text editor will apply when it is not possible to use Should not be opened.

How to open CA file?

The most common problem when using Initial Telnet Cache is that a specific CA is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that CA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CA 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 Should not be opened

In this case, you should first verify that the Should not be opened application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Should not be opened into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file CA with Should not be opened. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CA files.

Programs to open CA file

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

Step 2. Create association of Should not be opened with CA files

If, despite the installed application, the CA file does not start in the Should not be opened application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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 CA file with the Should not be opened application.

Step 3. Update Should not be opened to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Should not be opened program with the Initial Telnet Cache file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The CA file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the CA file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CA or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CA files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of CA file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 option of recovering data from damaged CA files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CA files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the CA file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CA to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
