If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CLKW file still does not use the Crick Software Clicker program, it means no association.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CLKW 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 CLKW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CLKW file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file CLKW or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CLKW 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 CLKW 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged CLKW files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Crick Software help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file CLKW 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the CLKW file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the CLKW file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
