How to open TWG file?
The most common problem when using CARE-S InfoWorks Trade Waste is that a specific TWG is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open TWG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TWG 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 CARE-S
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that CARE-S is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CARE-S 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 TWG files.
Programs to open TWG file
Remember to download programs supporting TWG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CARE-S with TWG files
If, despite the installed application, the TWG file does not start in the CARE-S 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the CARE-S application as the default for handling the TWG file.
Step 3. Update CARE-S to the latest version
If, however, after binding CARE-S with CARE-S InfoWorks Trade Waste 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 SINTEF page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the TWG file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the TWG 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file TWG or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover TWG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of TWG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair TWG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting SINTEF, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TWG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the TWG file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the TWG file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
