Step 1. Install Spring Cleaning
In this case, you should first verify that the Spring Cleaning application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Spring Cleaning into the operating system search engine.

Programs to open SCRESTORELOG file
Remember to download programs supporting SCRESTORELOG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Spring Cleaning with SCRESTORELOG files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SCRESTORELOG 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the SCRESTORELOG file with the Spring Cleaning program.
Step 3. Update Spring Cleaning to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Spring Cleaning program, it is possible that Spring Cleaning Restore Log requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Smith Micro Software, Inc. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SCRESTORELOG file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SCRESTORELOG 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SCRESTORELOG or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SCRESTORELOG files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the SCRESTORELOG file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged SCRESTORELOG files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Smith Micro, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted SCRESTORELOG 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the SCRESTORELOG file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the SCRESTORELOG file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SCRESTORELOG file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SCRESTORELOG file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
