Why isn't my keyfob working to unlock my car?

Why can the driver’s door of my car only be locked/unlocked with the key inserted?

Replace the battery in the keyfob. If this doesn't fix the problem then it may be an issue with the keyfob, the door lock or the keyless entry antenna.

I changed my battery in the key fob as a warning came up to change the battery. Now the car won't unlock, why is that?
