How to open WOG file?
The main problem with WAsP Obstacle Group is that the WOG file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that WOG files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WOG 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 WAsP
The first step is to check if the computer has the WAsP program installed. This can be achieved by typing WAsP into the operating system search engine. 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 WOG files.
Programs to open WOG file
Remember to download programs supporting WOG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WAsP with WOG files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WOG file still does not use the WAsP 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WOG file with the WAsP program.
Step 3. Update WAsP to the latest version
If, however, after binding WAsP with WAsP Obstacle Group 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 Wind Energy Division at Ris? DTU, Denmark page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WOG 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 WOG file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to WOG files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WOG file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WOG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the WOG files changes over time. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair WOG file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Wind Energy Division at Risø DTU, Denmark help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WOG except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. Copying the WOG file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WOG 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 WOG file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
