How to open UD file?
The most common problem when using OmniPage User Dictionary is that a specific UD is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open UD, 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 UD 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 OmniPage Pro X
The first step is to check if the computer has the OmniPage Pro X program installed. To do this, enter the name OmniPage Pro X into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file UD with OmniPage Pro X. Below you will find a list of applications that support UD files.
Programs to open UD file
Remember to download programs supporting UD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of OmniPage Pro X with UD files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the UD file to open in the OmniPage Pro X application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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 OmniPage Pro X application as the default for handling the UD file.
Step 3. Update OmniPage Pro X to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the OmniPage Pro X program, it is possible that OmniPage User Dictionary requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UD 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. Usually this applies to UD files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our UD file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UD 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 UD file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair UD file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted UD 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the UD file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the UD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file UD to close. 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.
