How to open Y07 file?

The most common problem when using Corel Paradox Secondary Index is that a specific Y07 is not associated with the program. This causes the file Y07 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 Y07 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. 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 Y07 files.

Programs to open Y07 file

Remember to download programs supporting Y07 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of WordPerfect Office with Y07 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the Y07 file still does not use the WordPerfect Office program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the Y07 file with the WordPerfect Office program.

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. 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 Y07 file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to Y07 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file Y07 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover Y07 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 Y07 file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular Y07 file corruption. 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.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted Y07 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 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. It is best to move Y07 to a different directory.
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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file Y07 to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the Y07 file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
