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

Step 2. Create association of GigaTrust Desktop Client with GTE files

If, despite the installed application, the GTE file does not start in the GigaTrust Desktop Client application, you must create a file association. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the GigaTrust Desktop Client application as the default for handling the GTE file.

Step 3. Update GigaTrust Desktop Client to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the GigaTrust Desktop Client program, it is possible that GigaTrust Protected requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the GigaTrust page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to GTE 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file GTE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected GTE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of GTE file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GTE file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use GigaTrust help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GTE 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the GTE file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
