How to open WWCX file?

An often recurring problem with Adobe InCopy is that WWCX is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file WWCX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WWCX 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 Adobe InCopy

The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe InCopy program installed. This can be achieved by typing Adobe InCopy into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file WWCX.

Programs to open WWCX file

Remember to download programs supporting WWCX files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Adobe InCopy with WWCX files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WWCX file to open in the Adobe InCopy application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 WWCX file with the Adobe InCopy program.

Step 3. Update Adobe InCopy to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Adobe InCopy program with the Adobe InCopy file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Adobe Systems Incorporated website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WWCX file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WWCX file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WWCX file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected WWCX 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 WWCX file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WWCX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems Incorporated help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file WWCX 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the WWCX file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the WWCX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the WWCX file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
