How to open X06 file?

An often recurring problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that X06 is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that X06 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 X06 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

The first step is to check if the computer has the WordPerfect Office program installed. 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 X06 with WordPerfect Office. Below you will find a list of applications that support X06 files.

Programs to open X06 file

Remember to download programs supporting X06 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with X06 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the X06 file still does not use the WordPerfect Office program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 X06 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. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Corel Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the X06 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the X06 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 X06 or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected X06 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the X06 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged X06 files. 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 X06 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the X06 file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file X06 to close. However, some background programs may block the X06 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
