How to open TWE file?
The most common problem when using ThinkWave Educator Data is that a specific TWE is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that TWE files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TWE 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 ThinkWave Educator
The first step is to check if the computer has the ThinkWave Educator program installed. To do this, enter the name ThinkWave Educator into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open TWE files.
Programs to open TWE file
Remember to download programs supporting TWE files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ThinkWave Educator with TWE files
If, despite the installed application, the TWE file does not start in the ThinkWave Educator application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the TWE file with the ThinkWave Educator program.
Step 3. Update ThinkWave Educator to the latest version
If, despite the association of the ThinkWave Educator program with the ThinkWave Educator Data file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the ThinkWave, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TWE 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. Usually this applies to TWE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TWE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected TWE file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the TWE files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TWE files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting ThinkWave, Inc., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted TWE files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
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. If possible, you can try to move the TWE file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file TWE to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the TWE file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
