How to open III file?
The most common problem when using Know Your Stuff is that a specific III is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that III files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the III 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 Know Your Stuff
The first step is to check if the computer has the Know Your Stuff program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Know Your Stuff in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file III with Know Your Stuff. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open III files.
Programs to open III file
Remember to download programs supporting III files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Know Your Stuff with III files
If, despite the installed application, the III file does not start in the Know Your Stuff application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 Know Your Stuff application as the default for handling the III file.
Step 3. Update Know Your Stuff to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Know Your Stuff program, it is possible that Know Your Stuff requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Insurance Information Institute, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the III file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The III file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to III 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 most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the III file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover III files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the III file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular III file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Insurance Information Institute, Inc.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted III 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. If possible, you can try to move the III file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file III 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.
