How to open X08 file?
The main problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that the X08 file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file X08 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 X08 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 X08 with WordPerfect Office. Below is a list of programs that support the file X08.
Programs to open X08 file
Remember to download programs supporting X08 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with X08 files
If, despite the installed application, the X08 file does not start in the WordPerfect Office application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WordPerfect Office application as the default for handling the X08 file.
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The fault may also lie with the WordPerfect Office program, it is possible that Corel Paradox Secondary Index requires a newer version of the program.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 X08 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the X08 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our X08 file. Sometimes virus-infected X08 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the X08 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged X08 files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Corel Corporation help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted X08 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the X08 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the X08 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the X08 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
