Programs to open MS-ONE-STUB file
Remember to download programs supporting MS-ONE-STUB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft OneNote with MS-ONE-STUB files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the MS-ONE-STUB file still does not use the Microsoft OneNote program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 MS-ONE-STUB file with the Microsoft OneNote program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft OneNote to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft OneNote program with the Microsoft OneNote Stub Data Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MS-ONE-STUB file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The MS-ONE-STUB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the MS-ONE-STUB file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our MS-ONE-STUB file. Sometimes virus-infected MS-ONE-STUB files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the MS-ONE-STUB 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair MS-ONE-STUB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted MS-ONE-STUB 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the MS-ONE-STUB file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the MS-ONE-STUB file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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.
