How to open WAJ file?
An often recurring problem with WinAutomation is that WAJ is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that WAJ 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 WAJ 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 WinAutomation
In this case, you should first verify that the WinAutomation application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WinAutomation 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 WAJ files.
Programs to open WAJ file
Remember to download programs supporting WAJ files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WinAutomation with WAJ files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WAJ file to open in the WinAutomation application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WinAutomation application as the default for handling the WAJ file.
Step 3. Update WinAutomation to the latest version
If, however, after binding WinAutomation with WinAutomation 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 Softomotive Ltd page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WAJ 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:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WAJ 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WAJ file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WAJ files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WAJ file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WAJ file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Softomotive Ltd
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WAJ 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 WAJ file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the WAJ file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WAJ file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
