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 select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the KFC file with the Cumulus program.
Step 3. Update Cumulus to the latest version

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The KFC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the KFC file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our KFC file. However, remember that not every infected KFC 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 KFC 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged KFC files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file KFC 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 KFC file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the KFC 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 KFC file again. However, some background programs may block the KFC file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
