How to open EXE4J file?

The main problem with Exe4j Configuration Format is that the EXE4J file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open EXE4J, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the EXE4J 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 exe4j

In this case, you should first verify that the exe4j application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name exe4j in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open EXE4J files.

Programs to open EXE4J file

Remember to download programs supporting EXE4J files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of exe4j with EXE4J files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the EXE4J file still does not use the exe4j program, it means no 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the EXE4J file with the exe4j program.

Step 3. Update exe4j to the latest version

If, however, after binding exe4j with Exe4j Configuration 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 ej-technologies GmbH website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EXE4J file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the EXE4J file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our EXE4J file. However, remember that not every infected EXE4J 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 EXE4J files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged EXE4J files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Ej-technologies
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted EXE4J 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 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. It is best to move EXE4J 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. Just close unnecessary programs. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
