FJ3 file extension
The FJ3 file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the FJ3 files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the FJ3 file on each system platform.
What is FJ3 file?
The file in the FJ3 format belongs to the Spreadsheet Files category. In addition to this file, the Spreadsheet Files category includes 100 related files. Lotus 1-2-3 Worksheet Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The Lotus 1-2-3 application is recommended to open the file. It was released by IBM.
How to open FJ3 file?
The most common problem when using Lotus 1-2-3 Worksheet Format is that a specific FJ3 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open FJ3, 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 FJ3 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 Lotus 1-2-3
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Lotus 1-2-3 is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Lotus 1-2-3 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. Below you will find a list of applications that support FJ3 files.
Programs to open FJ3 file
Remember to download programs supporting FJ3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Lotus 1-2-3 with FJ3 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FJ3 file still does not use the Lotus 1-2-3 program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Lotus 1-2-3 application as the default for handling the FJ3 file.
Step 3. Update Lotus 1-2-3 to the latest version
If, however, after binding Lotus 1-2-3 with Lotus 1-2-3 Worksheet Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the IBM page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FJ3 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the FJ3 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FJ3 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FJ3 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 FJ3 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FJ3 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FJ3 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the FJ3 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FJ3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FJ3 file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
