How to open UKE file?

An often recurring problem with Ulead VideoStudio Data Format is that UKE is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open UKE, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UKE 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 Unreal Development Kit

In this case, you should first verify that the Unreal Development Kit application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Unreal Development Kit in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file UKE with Unreal Development Kit. Below you will find a list of applications that support UKE files.

Step 2. Create association of Unreal Development Kit with UKE files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the UKE file to open in the Unreal Development Kit application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 Unreal Development Kit application as the default for handling the UKE file.

Step 3. Update Unreal Development Kit to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Unreal Development Kit program with the Ulead VideoStudio Data Format 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 Epic Games, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UKE file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to UKE files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file UKE or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected UKE 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 UKE 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged UKE files. 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 indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file UKE 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move UKE to a different directory.
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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UKE file again. 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.
