How to open SMR file?
The most common problem when using Smedge2 Job Settings is that a specific SMR is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open SMR, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the SMR 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 Smedge2
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Smedge2 is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Smedge2 into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open SMR files.
Programs to open SMR file
Remember to download programs supporting SMR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Smedge2 with SMR files
If, despite the installed application, the SMR file does not start in the Smedge2 application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the SMR file with the Smedge2 application.
Step 3. Update Smedge2 to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Smedge2 program with the Smedge2 Job Settings 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 Überware page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the SMR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the SMR file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our SMR file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover SMR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of SMR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular SMR file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Überware help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted SMR 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move SMR to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the SMR file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the SMR 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.
