How to open WYU file?
The main problem with WyBuild Update is that the WYU file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file WYU to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the WYU 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. This can be achieved by typing wyBuild into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open WYU files.
Programs to open WYU file
Remember to download programs supporting WYU files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of wyBuild with WYU files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the WYU 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. 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 WYU file with the wyBuild program.
Step 3. Update wyBuild to the latest version
If, despite the association of the wyBuild program with the WyBuild Update 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 WYU file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the WYU file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file WYU or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected WYU 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 WYU file. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged WYU files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact wyDay
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted WYU files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the WYU file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the WYU 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 WYU file again. However, some background programs may block the WYU file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
