How to open ~~F file?

The most common problem when using Microsoft Windows Application Log is that a specific ~~F is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that ~~F files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ~~F 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.

Programs to open ~~F file

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

Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with ~~F files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ~~F file to open in the Microsoft Windows application, but you can set it manually. 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Windows application as the default for handling the ~~F file.

Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Microsoft Windows program, it is possible that Microsoft Windows Application Log requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Microsoft Corporation page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ~~F file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to ~~F 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. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ~~F file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected ~~F file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ~~F 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ~~F file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Microsoft Corporation help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ~~F 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the ~~F file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ~~F file again. However, some background programs may block the ~~F file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
