The file with the extension K03 is the Misc Files file type. It was designed by SoftVelocity. In addition to this file, the Misc Files category includes 6033 related files. Clarion DOS Database Key is supported by 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is Clarion. This was created by SoftVelocity.
How to open K03 file?
The main problem with Clarion DOS Database Key is that the K03 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file K03 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the K03 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 Clarion
In this case, you should first verify that the Clarion application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Clarion in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file K03 with Clarion. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open K03 files.
Programs to open K03 file
Remember to download programs supporting K03 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Clarion with K03 files
If, despite the installed application, the K03 file does not start in the Clarion 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Clarion application as the default for handling the K03 file.
Step 3. Update Clarion to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Clarion program with the Clarion DOS Database Key file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the SoftVelocity page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the K03 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to K03 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file K03 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected K03 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 K03 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged K03 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SoftVelocity, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file K03 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the K03 file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file K03 to close. However, some background programs may block the K03 file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
