Programs to open LIVEREG file
Remember to download programs supporting LIVEREG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Symantec LiveReg with LIVEREG files
If, despite the installed application, the LIVEREG file does not start in the Symantec LiveReg 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 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 LIVEREG file with the Symantec LiveReg program.
Step 3. Update Symantec LiveReg to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Symantec LiveReg program, it is possible that Symantec Antivirus Session Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LIVEREG file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The LIVEREG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the LIVEREG file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our LIVEREG file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LIVEREG 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 LIVEREG 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged LIVEREG files.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LIVEREG 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 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 LIVEREG file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the LIVEREG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
