How to open NWDB file?
The main problem with NeatReceipts Database is that the NWDB file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that NWDB files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NWDB 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 NeatReceipts
The first step is to check if the computer has the NeatReceipts program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name NeatReceipts in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file NWDB with NeatReceipts. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open NWDB files.
Programs to open NWDB file
Remember to download programs supporting NWDB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of NeatReceipts with NWDB files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the NWDB file still does not use the NeatReceipts program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the NeatReceipts application as the default for handling the NWDB file.
Step 3. Update NeatReceipts to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the NeatReceipts program, it is possible that NeatReceipts Database requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the The Neat Company website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the NWDB file
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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to NWDB 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NWDB or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected NWDB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of NWDB 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.
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 NWDB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use The Neat Company help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted NWDB 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move NWDB to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the NWDB file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
