How to open FSF file?
The main problem with Microsoft Office Cache is that the FSF file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open FSF, 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 FSF 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 Microsoft Office
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Microsoft Office is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Microsoft Office into the 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 FSF files.
Programs to open FSF file
Remember to download programs supporting FSF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Office with FSF files
If, despite the installed application, the FSF file does not start in the Microsoft Office application, you must create a file association. 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 select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Office application as the default for handling the FSF file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Office to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Office program, it is possible that Microsoft Office Cache requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FSF 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:
The FSF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FSF 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FSF or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FSF 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 FSF file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FSF files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Microsoft Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FSF files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move FSF to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the FSF 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 FSF file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FSF file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
