Programs to open SDO file

Remember to download programs supporting SDO files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Signere.no Document Viewer with SDO files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SDO file still does not use the Signere.no Document Viewer program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SDO file with the Signere.no Document Viewer application.

Step 3. Update Signere.no Document Viewer to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Signere.no Document Viewer program, it is possible that Signed Document requires a newer version of the program.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SDO file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to SDO 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 quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SDO file. Sometimes virus-infected SDO 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 SDO files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SDO file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SDO files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the SDO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SDO file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SDO to close. However, some background programs may block the SDO file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
