How to open 4CM file?
The main problem with ClickyMouse Macro Set is that the 4CM file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file 4CM to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the 4CM 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 ClickyMouse
The first step is to check if the computer has the ClickyMouse program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ClickyMouse in it. 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 4CM files.
Programs to open 4CM file
Remember to download programs supporting 4CM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ClickyMouse with 4CM files
If, despite the installed application, the 4CM file does not start in the ClickyMouse 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 4CM file with the ClickyMouse application.
Step 3. Update ClickyMouse to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ClickyMouse program, it is possible that ClickyMouse Macro Set requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Pitrinec Software page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the 4CM 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 suggests truncating the 4CM file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the 4CM file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected 4CM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the 4CM files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged 4CM files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Pitrinec Software help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted 4CM 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move 4CM to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the 4CM 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 4CM file again. However, some background programs may block the 4CM file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
