How to open WSR file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WSR 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.

Programs to open WSR file
Remember to download programs supporting WSR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Crossword Genius with WSR files
If, despite the installed application, the WSR file does not start in the Crossword Genius application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WSR file with the Crossword Genius application.
Step 3. Update Crossword Genius to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Crossword Genius program, it is possible that Crossword Genius requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the AussieSoft page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WSR file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the WSR file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WSR or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WSR 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 WSR files changes over time. 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 ability to automatically repair WSR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use AussieSoft help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WSR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the WSR file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WSR file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
