How to open U11 file?
The main problem with UFile 2011 Tax Return is that the U11 file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open U11, 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 U11 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 TurboTax
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that TurboTax is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name TurboTax in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file U11.
Programs to open U11 file
Remember to download programs supporting U11 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of TurboTax with U11 files
If, despite the installed application, the U11 file does not start in the TurboTax application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 U11 file with the TurboTax program.
Step 3. Update TurboTax to the latest version
If, despite the association of the TurboTax program with the UFile 2011 Tax Return 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 Intuit Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the U11 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The U11 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to U11 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file U11 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover U11 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the U11 file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular U11 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Dr Tax Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file U11 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the U11 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
