How to open X05 file?
The main problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that the X05 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file X05 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the X05 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
In this case, you should first verify that the WordPerfect Office application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name WordPerfect Office in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file X05 with WordPerfect Office. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open X05 files.
Programs to open X05 file
Remember to download programs supporting X05 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with X05 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the X05 file still does not use the WordPerfect Office 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 set the program to handle this type. 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 X05 file with the WordPerfect Office program.
Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the WordPerfect Office program, it is possible that Corel Paradox Secondary Index requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Corel Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the X05 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. Usually this applies to X05 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the X05 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected X05 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of X05 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular X05 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted X05 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the X05 file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the X05 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
