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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CFX 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the CFX file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CFX file. Sometimes virus-infected CFX 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 CFX 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 CFX file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact MAGIX AG
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted CFX files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the CFX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CFX 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 CFX to close. However, some background programs may block the CFX file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
