If, despite the installed application, the WXY file does not start in the League of Legends 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. 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.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WXY file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The WXY file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WXY file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WXY or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected WXY file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of WXY file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WXY file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted WXY 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the WXY file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WXY file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the WXY file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WXY file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
