How to open Y05 file?
The most common problem when using Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that a specific Y05 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open Y05, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the Y05 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
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that WordPerfect Office is installed on the computer. 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 Y05 with WordPerfect Office.

Programs to open Y05 file
Remember to download programs supporting Y05 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with Y05 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the Y05 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 select the desired program. 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 Y05 file with the WordPerfect Office application.
Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version
If, despite the association of the WordPerfect Office program with the Corel Paradox Secondary Index file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. 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 Y05 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the Y05 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our Y05 file. However, remember that not every infected Y05 file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of Y05 file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular Y05 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 Y05 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the Y05 file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 Y05 file again. However, some background programs may block the Y05 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
