What is SKS file?
The file in the SKS format belongs to the Document Files category. The author of this format is Eltima Software GmbH.. Additionally, the Document Files category contains 574 of other files.

How to open SKS file?
The main problem with Show.kit Template is that the SKS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file SKS to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SKS 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 Show.kit
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Show.kit is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Show.kit in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support SKS files.
Programs to open SKS file
Remember to download programs supporting SKS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Show.kit with SKS files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SKS file still does not use the Show.kit program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Show.kit application as the default for handling the SKS file.
Step 3. Update Show.kit to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Show.kit program, it is possible that Show.kit Template requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SKS 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the SKS file contents when downloading or copying. 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SKS file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SKS files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the SKS 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SKS file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SKS except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. Copying the SKS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the SKS file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
