How to open URR file?
An often recurring problem with Uniface Signatures Format is that URR is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that URR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the URR 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
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Uniface is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Uniface into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open URR files.
Programs to open URR file
Remember to download programs supporting URR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Uniface with URR files
If, despite the installed application, the URR 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Uniface application as the default for handling the URR file.
Step 3. Update Uniface to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Uniface program with the Uniface Signatures Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Compuware Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the URR file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the URR file. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the URR file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected URR files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of URR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular URR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Compuware help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted URR files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move URR to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the URR file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the URR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
