How to open Y02 file?
An often recurring problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that Y02 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file Y02 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the Y02 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
In this case, you should first verify that the WordPerfect Office application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name WordPerfect Office into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open Y02 files.
Programs to open Y02 file
Remember to download programs supporting Y02 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with Y02 files
If, despite the installed application, the Y02 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the WordPerfect Office application as the default for handling the Y02 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The fault may also lie with the WordPerfect Office program, it is possible that Corel Paradox Secondary Index requires a newer version of the program. 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 Y02 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The Y02 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the Y02 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the Y02 file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected Y02 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of Y02 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged Y02 files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Corel Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file Y02 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. Copying the Y02 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. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
