Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type.

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

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RIR file. 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RIR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RIR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RIR file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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 RIR file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file RIR 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the RIR file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the RIR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the RIR file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
