Step 2. Create association of Kaspersky Anti-Virus with ENC1 files
If, despite the installed application, the ENC1 file does not start in the Kaspersky Anti-Virus application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ENC1 file with the Kaspersky Anti-Virus program.
Step 3. Update Kaspersky Anti-Virus to the latest version
If, however, after binding Kaspersky Anti-Virus with Kaspersky Anti-Virus Log Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Kaspersky Lab website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ENC1 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The ENC1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ENC1 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ENC1 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ENC1 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ENC1 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 ENC1 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ENC1 files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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 ENC1 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. 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.
