How to open WDOC file?
The most common problem when using WriteOnline Document is that a specific WDOC is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that WDOC 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 WDOC 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 WriteOnline
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WriteOnline is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WriteOnline in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file WDOC with WriteOnline. Below you will find a list of applications that support WDOC files.
Programs to open WDOC file
Remember to download programs supporting WDOC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WriteOnline with WDOC files
If, despite the installed application, the WDOC file does not start in the WriteOnline 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WDOC file with the WriteOnline program.
Step 3. Update WriteOnline to the latest version
If, however, after binding WriteOnline with WriteOnline Document there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Crick Software Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WDOC file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the WDOC file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WDOC file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected WDOC files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WDOC 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 the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WDOC file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Crick Software Ltd.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WDOC 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. If possible, you can try to move the WDOC file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WDOC 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. However, some background programs may block the WDOC file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
