How to open X04 file?
The main problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that the X04 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that X04 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 X04 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 WordPerfect Office

If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file X04 with WordPerfect Office. Below is a list of programs that support the file X04.

Remember to download programs supporting X04 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with X04 files
If, despite the installed application, the X04 file does not start in the WordPerfect Office 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the X04 file with the WordPerfect Office program.
Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WordPerfect Office program with the Corel Paradox Secondary Index file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Corel Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the X04 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The X04 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the X04 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file X04 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover X04 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of X04 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair X04 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Corel Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file X04 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. It is best to move X04 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. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
