How to open UVKBK file?
The most common problem when using Ultra Virus Killer Backup Information Format is that a specific UVKBK is not associated with the program. This causes the file UVKBK to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the UVKBK 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 Ultra Virus Killer
The first step is to check if the computer has the Ultra Virus Killer program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Ultra Virus Killer 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 UVKBK.
Programs to open UVKBK file
Remember to download programs supporting UVKBK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Ultra Virus Killer with UVKBK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the UVKBK file still does not use the Ultra Virus Killer program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the UVKBK file with the Ultra Virus Killer application.
Step 3. Update Ultra Virus Killer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Ultra Virus Killer program with the Ultra Virus Killer Backup Information 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 Carifred page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the UVKBK file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The UVKBK file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the UVKBK file contents when downloading or copying. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the UVKBK file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected UVKBK 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 UVKBK files changes over time. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged UVKBK files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted UVKBK 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the UVKBK file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the UVKBK file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the UVKBK file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
