How to open CFI file?
The most common problem when using CleverForm Script is that a specific CFI is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open CFI, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CFI 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 CleverForm
In this case, you should first verify that the CleverForm application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CleverForm in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file CFI with CleverForm. Below is a list of programs that support the file CFI.
Programs to open CFI file
Remember to download programs supporting CFI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CleverForm with CFI files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CFI file still does not use the CleverForm program, it means no 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CleverForm application as the default for handling the CFI file.
Step 3. Update CleverForm to the latest version
If, however, after binding CleverForm with CleverForm Script there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the CleverForm Ltd. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CFI file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CFI file. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CFI file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CFI 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 CFI file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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 CFI file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting CleverForm Ltd., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file CFI 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the CFI file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the CFI file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file CFI to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
