Step 2. Create association of Sierra Print Artist with QOT files

If, despite the installed application, the QOT file does not start in the Sierra Print Artist application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the QOT file with the Sierra Print Artist program.

Step 3. Update Sierra Print Artist to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Sierra Print Artist program with the Sierra Print Artist Quotes file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Sierra Entertainment, Inc. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the QOT 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 suggests truncating the QOT file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file QOT or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover QOT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the QOT files changes over time. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular QOT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Sierra Entertainment, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted QOT 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the QOT file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
