Step 2. Create association of Spring Cleaning with SCEXCLUDB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SCEXCLUDB file to open in the Spring Cleaning application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Spring Cleaning application as the default for handling the SCEXCLUDB file.
Step 3. Update Spring Cleaning to the latest version

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SCEXCLUDB file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SCEXCLUDB file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SCEXCLUDB files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SCEXCLUDB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SCEXCLUDB files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Smith Micro help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SCEXCLUDB 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. 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 SCEXCLUDB file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SCEXCLUDB file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
