Error: Invalid or corrupt jarfile

Edition date: 15-4-2019

This error message for Wordshark 5 or Numbershark 5 USBs  indicates that the “read only” part of the USB has failed, and needs to be replaced.

  • This is free of charge within one year of purchase date. Otherwise:
  • Sales@wordshark.co.uk  can provide the “replacement price” which is significantly lower than the “initial purchase price”.


Whilst USBs are inherently more prone to failure and loss than the “Download” products, our help-sheet may extend the life of the replacement:

It may be worth reading prior to contacting Sales. If you use the program on a single computer, an “activated download” onto a single machine may meet your needs better, and enable you to be “up and running” faster.
