How to open SSIW file?

The main problem with Corel WordPerfect 4 For Mac Document is that the SSIW file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file SSIW 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 SSIW 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 WordPerfect Office

In this case, you should first verify that the WordPerfect Office application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WordPerfect Office in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file SSIW with WordPerfect Office. Below you will find a list of applications that support SSIW files.

Programs to open SSIW file

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

Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with SSIW files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the SSIW file still does not use the WordPerfect Office program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WordPerfect Office application as the default for handling the SSIW file.

Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version

If, however, after binding WordPerfect Office with Corel WordPerfect 4 For Mac Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Corel Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SSIW 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 SSIW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the SSIW file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the SSIW file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected SSIW 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 SSIW files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 SSIW file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file SSIW 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SSIW 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file SSIW to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SSIW file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
