How to open AM5 file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AM5 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

Programs to open AM5 file
Remember to download programs supporting AM5 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of AutoPlay Media Studio with AM5 files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AM5 file still does not use the AutoPlay Media Studio program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the AM5 file with the AutoPlay Media Studio program.
Step 3. Update AutoPlay Media Studio to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the AutoPlay Media Studio program, it is possible that AutoPlay Media Studio 5 Project Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Indigo Rose Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AM5 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:
The AM5 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the AM5 file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file AM5 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover AM5 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 AM5 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AM5 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Indigo Rose, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AM5 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 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 AM5 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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
