Remember to download programs supporting EFTX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Word with EFTX files
If, despite the installed application, the EFTX file does not start in the Microsoft Word application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the EFTX file with the Microsoft Word application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Word to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Word program, it is possible that Office 2007 Theme Effect Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EFTX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't 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 EFTX file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 EFTX file. However, remember that not every infected EFTX file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the EFTX files changes over time. 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EFTX files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file EFTX 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the EFTX file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the EFTX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
