How to open FDSRCH2 file?

An often recurring problem with FeedDemon Search Data is that FDSRCH2 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open FDSRCH2, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FDSRCH2 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 FeedDemon

The first step is to check if the computer has the FeedDemon program installed. This can be achieved by typing FeedDemon into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file FDSRCH2.

Programs to open FDSRCH2 file

Remember to download programs supporting FDSRCH2 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of FeedDemon with FDSRCH2 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FDSRCH2 file still does not use the FeedDemon 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 FDSRCH2 file with the FeedDemon application.

Step 3. Update FeedDemon to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the FeedDemon program, it is possible that FeedDemon Search Data requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the NewsGator Technologies, Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FDSRCH2 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the FDSRCH2 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FDSRCH2 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FDSRCH2 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FDSRCH2 file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FDSRCH2 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use NewsGator Technologies, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FDSRCH2 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the FDSRCH2 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FDSRCH2 to close. However, some background programs may block the FDSRCH2 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
