Programs to open OTRKEY file
Remember to download programs supporting OTRKEY files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OTR Decoder with OTRKEY files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the OTRKEY file to open in the OTR Decoder application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the OTRKEY file with the OTR Decoder program.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OTRKEY file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OTRKEY file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file OTRKEY or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OTRKEY 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 OTRKEY 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged OTRKEY files.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted OTRKEY 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. 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 OTRKEY file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the OTRKEY file again. However, some background programs may block the OTRKEY file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
