How to open RRX file?
An often recurring problem with IBM Datacap Define is that RRX is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file RRX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RRX file icon you want to open. If the operating system has an appropriate application to support it and there is also an association between the file and the program, the file should be opened.
Step 1. Install IBM Datacap
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that IBM Datacap is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name IBM Datacap into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support RRX files.
Programs to open RRX file
Remember to download programs supporting RRX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of IBM Datacap with RRX files
If, despite the installed application, the RRX file does not start in the IBM Datacap application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 RRX file with the IBM Datacap program.
Step 3. Update IBM Datacap to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the IBM Datacap program, it is possible that IBM Datacap Define requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the IBM website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RRX file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RRX file. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RRX file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RRX files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the RRX 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular RRX file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting IBM, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file RRX 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 RRX to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RRX to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RRX file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
