How to open XG3 file?
The most common problem when using Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that a specific XG3 is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that XG3 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 XG3 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. This can be achieved by typing WordPerfect Office into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file XG3 with WordPerfect Office. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open XG3 files.
Programs to open XG3 file
Remember to download programs supporting XG3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with XG3 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the XG3 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 window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the XG3 file with the WordPerfect Office application.
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The fault may also lie with the WordPerfect Office program, it is possible that Corel Paradox Secondary Index requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Corel Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XG3 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the XG3 file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file XG3 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover XG3 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of XG3 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair XG3 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Corel Corporation help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XG3 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 XG3 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the XG3 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the XG3 file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
