Step 2. Create association of SQLite with DB3-JOURNAL files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DB3-JOURNAL file still does not use the SQLite program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DB3-JOURNAL file with the SQLite application.
Step 3. Update SQLite to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the SQLite program, it is possible that SQLite Temporary Database Journal requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the SQLite Development Team page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DB3-JOURNAL file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The DB3-JOURNAL file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to DB3-JOURNAL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DB3-JOURNAL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DB3-JOURNAL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the DB3-JOURNAL files changes over time. 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 ability to automatically repair DB3-JOURNAL file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact SQLite Development Team
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DB3-JOURNAL 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. It is best to move DB3-JOURNAL to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DB3-JOURNAL file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DB3-JOURNAL 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.
