How to open WWB file?
The main problem with Corel WordPerfect Button Bar is that the WWB file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that WWB 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 WWB 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 WordPerfect Office
The first step is to check if the computer has the WordPerfect Office program installed. To do this, enter the name WordPerfect Office into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file WWB with WordPerfect Office. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open WWB files.
Programs to open WWB file
Remember to download programs supporting WWB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with WWB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WWB file to open in the WordPerfect Office application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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 WWB 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 Button Bar file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Corel Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WWB file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to WWB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our WWB file. However, remember that not every infected WWB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the WWB file. 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WWB files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Corel Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WWB 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the WWB file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the WWB file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WWB file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WWB file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
