Programs to open GRK file
Remember to download programs supporting GRK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Gradekeeper with GRK files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the GRK file to open in the Gradekeeper application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 GRK file with the Gradekeeper application.
Step 3. Update Gradekeeper to the latest version
If, however, after binding Gradekeeper with Gradekeeper Class Gradebook Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Daniel Ethier website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GRK file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GRK files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. 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 GRK file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GRK files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GRK 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GRK file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Gradekeeper help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GRK 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the GRK file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GRK to close. 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.
