However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PWW file to open in the Patternland Weave Simulator application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button.

The fault may also lie with the Patternland Weave Simulator program, it is possible that Patternland Weave Simulator requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Maple Hill Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PWW file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The PWW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the PWW file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PWW file. Sometimes virus-infected PWW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the PWW file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PWW file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Maple Hill Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PWW 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 PWW to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the PWW file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PWW 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.
