How to open ADIUMSTATUSICONS file?

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

Step 1. Install Adium

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

Step 2. Create association of Adium with ADIUMSTATUSICONS files

If, despite the installed application, the ADIUMSTATUSICONS file does not start in the Adium application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adium application as the default for handling the ADIUMSTATUSICONS file.

Step 3. Update Adium to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Adium program with the Adium Status Icon file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the The Adium Team page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ADIUMSTATUSICONS file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ADIUMSTATUSICONS file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ADIUMSTATUSICONS or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected ADIUMSTATUSICONS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of ADIUMSTATUSICONS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 option of recovering data from damaged ADIUMSTATUSICONS files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact The Adium Team
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ADIUMSTATUSICONS files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move ADIUMSTATUSICONS to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the ADIUMSTATUSICONS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
