How to open PKH file?
The main problem with Oracle Package Format is that the PKH file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that PKH files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PKH 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 PL/SQL software
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that PL/SQL software is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name PL/SQL software into the system search engine.

Step 2. Create association of PL/SQL software with PKH files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PKH file still does not use the PL/SQL software program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the PL/SQL software application as the default for handling the PKH file.
Step 3. Update PL/SQL software to the latest version
If, however, after binding PL/SQL software with Oracle Package Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PKH file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PKH file. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PKH or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected PKH file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of PKH 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PKH file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PKH 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the PKH file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PKH to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
