How to open UAR file?
An often recurring problem with Uniface Deployment Archive Format is that UAR is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that UAR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UAR 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 Uniface
In this case, you should first verify that the Uniface application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Uniface into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support UAR files.
Programs to open UAR file
Remember to download programs supporting UAR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Uniface with UAR files
If, despite the installed application, the UAR file does not start in the Uniface 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 UAR file with the Uniface program.
Step 3. Update Uniface to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Uniface program, it is possible that Uniface Deployment Archive Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Compuware Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UAR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the UAR file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the UAR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected UAR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of UAR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular UAR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file UAR 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.
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. Copying the UAR file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the UAR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UAR file again. However, some background programs may block the UAR file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
