How to open Y06 file?
An often recurring problem with Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that Y06 is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file Y06 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the Y06 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. To do this, enter the name WordPerfect Office into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file Y06 with WordPerfect Office. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open Y06 files.
Programs to open Y06 file
Remember to download programs supporting Y06 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with Y06 files
If, despite the installed application, the Y06 file does not start in the WordPerfect Office application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the Y06 file with the WordPerfect Office program.
Step 3. Update WordPerfect Office to the latest version
If, however, after binding WordPerfect Office with Corel Paradox Secondary Index there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Corel Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the Y06 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the Y06 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the Y06 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover Y06 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the Y06 file. 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 this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular Y06 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Corel Corporation
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file Y06 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.
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. Copying the Y06 file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
