How to open W01 file?
An often recurring problem with Yamaha SY Series Wave Format is that W01 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open W01, 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 W01 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 Awave Studio
In this case, you should first verify that the Awave Studio application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Awave Studio in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open W01 files.
Programs to open W01 file
Remember to download programs supporting W01 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Awave Studio with W01 files
If, despite the installed application, the W01 file does not start in the Awave Studio 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the W01 file with the Awave Studio program.
Step 3. Update Awave Studio to the latest version
If, however, after binding Awave Studio with Yamaha SY Series Wave Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the FMJ-Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the W01 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 W01 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the W01 file. 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 W01 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected W01 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 W01 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged W01 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted W01 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 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. It is best to move W01 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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the W01 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
