How to open DRMX file?

The most common problem when using Drumlin Fully Secure PDF Format is that a specific DRMX is not associated with the program. This causes the file DRMX to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DRMX 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 Javelin PDF Reader

The first step is to check if the computer has the Javelin PDF Reader program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Javelin PDF Reader in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DRMX with Javelin PDF Reader. Below you will find a list of applications that support DRMX files.

Programs to open DRMX file

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

Step 2. Create association of Javelin PDF Reader with DRMX files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DRMX file still does not use the Javelin PDF Reader program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the DRMX file with the Javelin PDF Reader application.

Step 3. Update Javelin PDF Reader to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Javelin PDF Reader program, it is possible that Drumlin Fully Secure PDF Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Drumlin Security website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to DRMX files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DRMX file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DRMX files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the DRMX files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DRMX file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Drumlin Security help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DRMX except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the DRMX file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the DRMX file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the DRMX file again. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
