Step 2. Create association of KWalletManager with KWL files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the KWL file still does not use the KWalletManager program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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.

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to KWL files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 KWL or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover KWL files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of KWL file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular KWL file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KWL files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. If possible, you can try to move the KWL file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the KWL 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 KWL to close. However, some background programs may block the KWL file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
