Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with WRS files
If, despite the installed application, the WRS file does not start in the WordPerfect Office 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. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the WRS file with the WordPerfect Office program.
Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WordPerfect Office program with the Corel WordPerfect Windows Printer Driver 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 Corel Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WRS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the WRS file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WRS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected WRS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of WRS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WRS files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Corel Corporation
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WRS 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. Copying the WRS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WRS file again. However, some background programs may block the WRS file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
