How to open ONEPKG file?
An often recurring problem with Microsoft OneNote Package Format is that ONEPKG is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that ONEPKG files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ONEPKG 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 Microsoft OneNote
In this case, you should first verify that the Microsoft OneNote application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft OneNote into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file ONEPKG.

Remember to download programs supporting ONEPKG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft OneNote with ONEPKG files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ONEPKG file still does not use the Microsoft OneNote program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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 ONEPKG file with the Microsoft OneNote program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft OneNote to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft OneNote program, it is possible that Microsoft OneNote Package Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ONEPKG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The ONEPKG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to ONEPKG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ONEPKG file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected ONEPKG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ONEPKG 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ONEPKG files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file ONEPKG except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ONEPKG file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ONEPKG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
