WPS cannot start the latest solution for the source application of this object

Recently, when a user is using WPS, an error message appears stating that the source application of this object cannot be started. This problem is usually found when trying to open a file or link, and the source application of the file or link cannot be started. So how to solve this problem? Let’s take a look at the specific solutions.

Cause one: The source application is missing or damaged

When you encounter the "Cannot start the source application for this object" error, the first thing you should consider is the source application itself. PHP Editor Strawberry would like to remind you that if the source application is missing or damaged, the operating system will not be able to call it to process the file or link, resulting in this error. For more in-depth details and workarounds, keep reading.

• Solution:

  • Check whether the source application exists in the computer, try to reinstall or download the latest version.
  • If the app exists but won't start, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling it.

Cause two: File association error

Another cause of the error is file association error. File types are often associated with a specific application, and the operating system calls the associated application to open the file. If the file association is wrong or missing, the source application cannot be launched.

• Solution:

  • Right-click the file and select Properties or Open with option.
  • Select the correct application associated file type.
  • If you are not sure, you can search for default apps online.

Cause Three: Operating System Compatibility Issues

The error may also be related to operating system compatibility issues. Some applications can only run on specific operating system versions and will not launch if the operating system is incompatible.

• Workaround:

  • Make sure the operating system is the minimum version required by the application or higher.
  • If incompatible, find an alternative application to handle the file or link.
