Step 2. Create association of XWE with HGC1 files

If, despite the installed application, the HGC1 file does not start in the XWE 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 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the HGC1 file with the XWE program.

Step 3. Update XWE to the latest version

If, however, after binding XWE with XWE Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HGC1 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The HGC1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to HGC1 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our HGC1 file. Sometimes virus-infected HGC1 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HGC1 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HGC1 file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file HGC1 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the HGC1 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the HGC1 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 HGC1 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the HGC1 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
