How to open ETK file?
An often recurring problem with Orgadata LogiKal is that ETK is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that ETK files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ETK file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install LogiKal
The first step is to check if the computer has the LogiKal program installed. This can be achieved by typing LogiKal into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open ETK files.
Programs to open ETK file
Remember to download programs supporting ETK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of LogiKal with ETK files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ETK file to open in the LogiKal application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the ETK file with the LogiKal program.
Step 3. Update LogiKal to the latest version
If, despite the association of the LogiKal program with the Orgadata LogiKal file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Orgadata AG page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ETK file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ETK files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. 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 ETK or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ETK file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of ETK file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ETK file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Orgadata AG help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ETK 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the ETK file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ETK file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ETK file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ETK file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
