How to open USB file?

The main problem with SiSoftware Sandra is that the USB file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open USB, 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 USB 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 SiSoftware Sandra

The first step is to check if the computer has the SiSoftware Sandra program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name SiSoftware Sandra in it. 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 USB.

Programs to open USB file

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

Step 2. Create association of SiSoftware Sandra with USB files

If, despite the installed application, the USB file does not start in the SiSoftware Sandra 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the USB file with the SiSoftware Sandra program.

Step 3. Update SiSoftware Sandra to the latest version

If, however, after binding SiSoftware Sandra with SiSoftware Sandra 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 SiSoftware website and install the latest version.

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

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

The USB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the USB file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 USB or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover USB 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 USB 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair USB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use SiSoftware help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted USB 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move USB to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the USB file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
