The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LOR 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 O&O Defrag

Programs to open LOR file
Remember to download programs supporting LOR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of O&O Defrag with LOR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LOR file still does not use the O&O Defrag program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the LOR file with the O&O Defrag program.
Step 3. Update O&O Defrag to the latest version
If, however, after binding O&O Defrag with O&O Defrag Agent Data Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the O&O Software GmBH page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LOR file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The LOR file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to LOR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 LOR file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LOR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the LOR 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LOR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted LOR 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. It is best to move LOR to a different directory.
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. Closing other programs should help. 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.
