What is FUD file?

How to open FUD file?
The main problem with FairUse Wizard Data is that the FUD file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open FUD, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FUD 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 FairUse Wizard
The first step is to check if the computer has the FairUse Wizard program installed. To do this, enter the name FairUse Wizard into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support FUD files.
Programs to open FUD file
Remember to download programs supporting FUD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FairUse Wizard with FUD files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FUD file to open in the FairUse Wizard application, but you can set it manually. 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FUD file with the FairUse Wizard application.
Step 3. Update FairUse Wizard to the latest version
If, despite the association of the FairUse Wizard program with the FairUse Wizard Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FUD file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FUD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FUD file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FUD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FUD 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FUD file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FUD 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.
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 FUD to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the FUD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FUD to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FUD file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
