How to open WCXF file?
The most common problem when using WorldCard Exchange is that a specific WCXF is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that WCXF 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 WCXF 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 WorldCard Mobile

Programs to open WCXF file
Remember to download programs supporting WCXF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WorldCard Mobile with WCXF files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WCXF file still does not use the WorldCard Mobile program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WCXF file with the WorldCard Mobile application.
Step 3. Update WorldCard Mobile to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WorldCard Mobile program with the WorldCard Exchange file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Penpower Technology Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WCXF file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The WCXF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to WCXF files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WCXF file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WCXF files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of WCXF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WCXF file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WCXF 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move WCXF to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the WCXF file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WCXF file again. However, some background programs may block the WCXF file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
