Step 2. Create association of Yu-Gi-Oh! Power of Chaos - Yugi the Destiny with YDR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the YDR file still does not use the Yu-Gi-Oh! Power of Chaos - Yugi the Destiny 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.

Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Konami Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the YDR file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to YDR 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file YDR or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover YDR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the YDR files changes over time. 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair YDR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Konami help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted YDR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the YDR file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the YDR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the YDR file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the YDR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
