How to open ROW file?

Step 1. Install e.Report Designer Pro

Programs to open ROW file

Remember to download programs supporting ROW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of e.Report Designer Pro with ROW files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ROW file to open in the e.Report Designer Pro application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 ROW file with the e.Report Designer Pro program.

Step 3. Update e.Report Designer Pro to the latest version

If, despite the association of the e.Report Designer Pro program with the Actuate E.Report HTML Report Document file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ROW file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ROW file. Sometimes virus-infected ROW 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 ROW files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ROW file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ROW 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the ROW file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the ROW file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ROW file again. However, some background programs may block the ROW file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
