Step 2. Create association of Corel PaintShop Pro with PSPCACHE files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PSPCACHE file still does not use the Corel PaintShop Pro 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PSPCACHE file with the Corel PaintShop Pro application.

If, however, after binding Corel PaintShop Pro with Corel PaintShop Pro Cache Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PSPCACHE 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PSPCACHE file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PSPCACHE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected PSPCACHE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of PSPCACHE 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PSPCACHE file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file PSPCACHE 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PSPCACHE to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the PSPCACHE file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PSPCACHE file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PSPCACHE file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
