How to open WYC file?
An often recurring problem with WyBuild Version Number is that WYC is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open WYC, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WYC 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 wyBuild
The first step is to check if the computer has the wyBuild program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name wyBuild in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support WYC files.
Programs to open WYC file
Remember to download programs supporting WYC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of wyBuild with WYC files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the WYC file still does not use the wyBuild program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WYC file with the wyBuild application.
Step 3. Update wyBuild to the latest version
If, despite the association of the wyBuild program with the WyBuild Version Number 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 wyDay page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the WYC 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the WYC file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the WYC file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover WYC files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of WYC file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular WYC file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use wyDay help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WYC 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 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. It is best to move WYC to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file WYC to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the WYC file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
