How to open YG6 file?
An often recurring problem with Corel Paradox Data Format is that YG6 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open YG6, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the YG6 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 Corel Paradox

Programs to open YG6 file
Remember to download programs supporting YG6 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Corel Paradox with YG6 files
If, despite the installed application, the YG6 file does not start in the Corel Paradox application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the YG6 file with the Corel Paradox application.
Step 3. Update Corel Paradox to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Corel Paradox program, it is possible that Corel Paradox Data Format requires a newer version of the program. 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 YG6 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The YG6 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the YG6 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the YG6 file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover YG6 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 YG6 files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair YG6 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted YG6 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move YG6 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the YG6 file is blocked by the first application to open it. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
