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

Step 2. Create association of Dragon UnPACKer with XCR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XCR file to open in the Dragon UnPACKer application, but you can set it manually.

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Alexandre Devilliers page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XCR 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 XCR file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XCR file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XCR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the XCR 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XCR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Enlight Software. Ltd. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted XCR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the XCR file to another location.
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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file XCR to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the XCR file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
