How to open XPW file?
An often recurring problem with Accessible FormNet Fillable Form is that XPW is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open XPW, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the XPW 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 Accessible FormNet
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Accessible FormNet is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Accessible FormNet into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open XPW files.
Programs to open XPW file
Remember to download programs supporting XPW files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Accessible FormNet with XPW files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the XPW file to open in the Accessible FormNet application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. 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 Accessible FormNet application as the default for handling the XPW file.
Step 3. Update Accessible FormNet to the latest version
If, however, after binding Accessible FormNet with Accessible FormNet Fillable Form there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Intercon Associates Inc. website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the XPW file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The XPW file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to XPW files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the XPW file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected XPW file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of XPW file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular XPW file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Intercon Associates Inc.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file XPW 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move XPW to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file XPW to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
