How to open AM4 file?
An often recurring problem with AutoPlay Media Studio 4 Project Format is that AM4 is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open AM4, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AM4 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 AutoPlay Media Studio
The first step is to check if the computer has the AutoPlay Media Studio program installed. This can be achieved by typing AutoPlay Media Studio 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 AM4 files.
Programs to open AM4 file
Remember to download programs supporting AM4 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of AutoPlay Media Studio with AM4 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AM4 file still does not use the AutoPlay Media Studio program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the AM4 file with the AutoPlay Media Studio application.
Step 3. Update AutoPlay Media Studio to the latest version
If, despite the association of the AutoPlay Media Studio program with the AutoPlay Media Studio 4 Project Format 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 Indigo Rose Corporation page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AM4 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The AM4 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AM4 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AM4 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected AM4 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the AM4 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AM4 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Indigo Rose help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file AM4 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. If possible, you can try to move the AM4 file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the AM4 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
