Step 2. Create association of PowerDVD with PLAYLIST files
If, despite the installed application, the PLAYLIST file does not start in the PowerDVD application, you must create a file association. 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. 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 PLAYLIST file with the PowerDVD program.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PLAYLIST file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The PLAYLIST file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PLAYLIST file. 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 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 PLAYLIST or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected PLAYLIST files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PLAYLIST 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 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 PLAYLIST file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use CyberLink help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted PLAYLIST files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PLAYLIST to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PLAYLIST to close. However, some background programs may block the PLAYLIST file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
