Step 1. Install Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon

Programs to open WHSAV file
Remember to download programs supporting WHSAV files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon with WHSAV files
If, despite the installed application, the WHSAV file does not start in the Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 WHSAV file with the Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon application.
Step 3. Update Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon program with the Warhammer 40,000: Armageddon Saved Game Format 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 Slitherine Ltd. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WHSAV file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The WHSAV file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WHSAV file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WHSAV or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected WHSAV files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of WHSAV file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WHSAV files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WHSAV 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the WHSAV file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WHSAV to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WHSAV file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
