How to open TFS file?

An often recurring problem with Turbo Profiler Statistical Information is that TFS is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that TFS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the TFS 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 Turbo Profiler

The first step is to check if the computer has the Turbo Profiler program installed. To do this, enter the name Turbo Profiler into the system search engine.

Programs to open TFS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Turbo Profiler with TFS files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the TFS file to open in the Turbo Profiler application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Turbo Profiler application as the default for handling the TFS file.

Step 3. Update Turbo Profiler to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Turbo Profiler program with the Turbo Profiler Statistical Information 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 Borland Software Corporation page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the TFS file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. 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 TFS or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected TFS files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the TFS file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged TFS files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Borland Software Corporation, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted TFS files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the TFS file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the TFS 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.
