How to open SAFETEXT file?
The main problem with SafeText Format is that the SAFETEXT file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open SAFETEXT, 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 SAFETEXT 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 SafeText
The first step is to check if the computer has the SafeText program installed. This can be achieved by typing SafeText into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SAFETEXT with SafeText. Below you will find a list of applications that support SAFETEXT files.
Programs to open SAFETEXT file
Remember to download programs supporting SAFETEXT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SafeText with SAFETEXT files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SAFETEXT file to open in the SafeText 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 SAFETEXT file with the SafeText program.
Step 3. Update SafeText to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the SafeText program, it is possible that SafeText Format requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SAFETEXT file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The SAFETEXT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to SAFETEXT 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 computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. 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 SAFETEXT file. Sometimes virus-infected SAFETEXT 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 SAFETEXT 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 this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SAFETEXT file corruption.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SAFETEXT 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. It is best to move SAFETEXT to a different directory.
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 SAFETEXT file again. However, some background programs may block the SAFETEXT file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
