Step 2. Create association of TrueZIP with RAES files

If, despite the installed application, the RAES file does not start in the TrueZIP application, you must create a file association.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RAES 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to RAES files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RAES file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover RAES files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of RAES 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RAES file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Schlichtherle IT Services
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RAES 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. Copying the RAES file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the RAES file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RAES to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RAES file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
