How to open RWSTYLE file?
An often recurring problem with RapidWeaver Style Format is that RWSTYLE is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open RWSTYLE, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the RWSTYLE 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 RapidWeaver
In this case, you should first verify that the RapidWeaver application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing RapidWeaver into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support RWSTYLE files.
Programs to open RWSTYLE file
Remember to download programs supporting RWSTYLE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of RapidWeaver with RWSTYLE files
If, despite the installed application, the RWSTYLE file does not start in the RapidWeaver application, you must create a file association. 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. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the RWSTYLE file with the RapidWeaver program.
Step 3. Update RapidWeaver to the latest version
If, however, after binding RapidWeaver with RapidWeaver Style Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Realmac Software Limited page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RWSTYLE file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to RWSTYLE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RWSTYLE file. Sometimes virus-infected RWSTYLE files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of RWSTYLE file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RWSTYLE file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Realmac Software, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RWSTYLE files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the RWSTYLE file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the RWSTYLE file again. However, some background programs may block the RWSTYLE file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
