How to open WYS file?

The main problem with WyBuild Server is that the WYS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that WYS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

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

In this case, you should first verify that the wyBuild application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name wyBuild into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file WYS.

Programs to open WYS file

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

Step 2. Create association of wyBuild with WYS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WYS file to open in the wyBuild application, but you can set it manually. 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 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the WYS file with the wyBuild application.

Step 3. Update wyBuild to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the wyBuild program, it is possible that WyBuild Server requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the wyDay website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The WYS file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the WYS file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WYS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected WYS 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 WYS file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or 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 WYS 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 file WYS 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the WYS file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the WYS 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 WYS file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
