How to open SSS~ file?

An often recurring problem with WindowBlinds Temporary is that SSS~ is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open SSS~, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SSS~ 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 WindowBlinds

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

Programs to open SSS~ file

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

Step 2. Create association of WindowBlinds with SSS~ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the SSS~ file to open in the WindowBlinds application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 WindowBlinds application as the default for handling the SSS~ file.

Step 3. Update WindowBlinds to the latest version

If, however, after binding WindowBlinds with WindowBlinds Temporary there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Stardock Corporation website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SSS~ file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the SSS~ file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file SSS~ or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected SSS~ 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 SSS~ 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SSS~ file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Stardock Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SSS~ 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the SSS~ 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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the SSS~ file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
