Step 2. Create association of SageThumbs with RAWRAW files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RAWRAW file still does not use the SageThumbs program, it means no association.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RAWRAW file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The RAWRAW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RAWRAW file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RAWRAW or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected RAWRAW files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the RAWRAW 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RAWRAW file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RAWRAW 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RAWRAW to a different directory.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RAWRAW to close. However, some background programs may block the RAWRAW file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
