Programs to open OPW file
Remember to download programs supporting OPW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OrgPlus Enterprise with OPW files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the OPW file to open in the OrgPlus Enterprise application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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 OPW file with the OrgPlus Enterprise program.
Step 3. Update OrgPlus Enterprise to the latest version
If, despite the association of the OrgPlus Enterprise program with the OrgPlus For Windows Organization Chart file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Insperity, Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OPW 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to OPW files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 OPW file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OPW files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of OPW file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular OPW file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Insperity, Inc. help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OPW 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move OPW 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the OPW file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
