Common Problems Opening Y02 Files

Corel WordPerfect X8 Not Present

When you double-click your Y02 file, you may see a dialog box from your operating system stating that it "Cannot Open This File Type". Usually, this is because you do not have Corel WordPerfect X8 for %%os%% installed. You won't be able to double-click to open your Y02 because your OS doesn't know what to do with it.


Tip: When another Y02 application is installed, you can choose to open it by selecting "Show Apps" and using that program.

In other instances, your Corel Paradox Secondary Index file version may not be supported by your version of Corel WordPerfect X8. If you do not have the proper version Corel WordPerfect X8 (or any of the other programs listed above), you may need to try downloading a different version of it, or one of the other software applications listed above. This problem is predominately due to having a Corel Paradox Secondary Index file version that was created by a newer version of Corel WordPerfect X8 than what you have installed on your PC.


Tip: If you right-click on your Y02 file, then select "Properties" (Windows) or "Get Info" (Mac), you can obtain hints about what version you need.
