Programs to open KDD file
Remember to download programs supporting KDD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe Authorware with KDD files
If, despite the installed application, the KDD file does not start in the Adobe Authorware 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the KDD file with the Adobe Authorware application.
Step 3. Update Adobe Authorware to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Adobe Authorware program, it is possible that Adobe Authorware RTF Objects Editor Knowledge Display requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KDD file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The KDD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the KDD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file KDD or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected KDD file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the KDD file. 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged KDD files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems Incorporated help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted KDD files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the KDD file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the KDD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file KDD to close. However, some background programs may block the KDD file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
