Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Excel with PDER files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PDER file still does not use the Microsoft Excel program, it means no association. 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. 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 PDER file with the Microsoft Excel program.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Excel to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Excel program, it is possible that ProntoDoc For Excel Conventional Document requires a newer version of the program.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 PDER 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to PDER 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 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PDER or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PDER files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of PDER file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PDER file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Step Function, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PDER 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.
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 PDER to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PDER file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
