How to open UNUSED file?

The main problem with Photoline 4 Defaults is that the UNUSED file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that UNUSED files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UNUSED 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 Photoline

In this case, you should first verify that the Photoline application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Photoline into the system search engine. 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 UNUSED.

Programs to open UNUSED file

Remember to download programs supporting UNUSED files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Photoline with UNUSED files

If, despite the installed application, the UNUSED file does not start in the Photoline 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. 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 Photoline application as the default for handling the UNUSED file.

Step 3. Update Photoline to the latest version

If, however, after binding Photoline with Photoline 4 Defaults there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Impressum website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to UNUSED 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. 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 UNUSED or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover UNUSED files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the UNUSED files changes over time. 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 UNUSED file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Impressum help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted UNUSED 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 UNUSED file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the UNUSED file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UNUSED file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
