Step 2. Create association of with RE7 files

If, despite the installed application, the RE7 file does not start in the application, you must create a file association.

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 RE7 file with the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RE7 file

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The RE7 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to RE7 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RE7 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected RE7 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RE7 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RE7 file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file RE7 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move RE7 to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RE7 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RE7 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
