How to open UTI file?

The most common problem when using Spybot - Search & Destroy Includes is that a specific UTI is not associated with the program.

Programs to open UTI file

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

Step 2. Create association of Spybot - Search & Destroy with UTI files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UTI file still does not use the Spybot - Search & Destroy program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the UTI file with the Spybot - Search & Destroy application.

This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Safer-Networking Ltd. website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to UTI 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our UTI file. However, remember that not every infected UTI file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of UTI 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.
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 UTI files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Safer-Networking Ltd., but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted UTI 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the UTI file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file UTI to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UTI file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
