How to open STORY file?
The main problem with Storyist Document is that the STORY file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file STORY to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the STORY 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 Storyist
The first step is to check if the computer has the Storyist program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Storyist in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file STORY with Storyist. Below you will find a list of applications that support STORY files.
Programs to open STORY file
Remember to download programs supporting STORY files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Storyist with STORY files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the STORY file to open in the Storyist 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 Storyist application as the default for handling the STORY file.
Step 3. Update Storyist to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Storyist program, it is possible that Storyist Document requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the STORY file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The STORY file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the STORY file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our STORY file. However, remember that not every infected STORY file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of STORY file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged STORY files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted STORY 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 STORY file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file STORY to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the STORY file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
