ABBYY Finereader 5.0 Pro appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The ABBYY Finereader Pro application is recommended to open the file. It was released by ABBYY.
How to open AMT file?
The most common problem when using ABBYY Finereader 5.0 Pro is that a specific AMT is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open AMT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AMT 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 ABBYY Finereader Pro
In this case, you should first verify that the ABBYY Finereader Pro application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing ABBYY Finereader Pro into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file AMT with ABBYY Finereader Pro. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open AMT files.
Programs to open AMT file
Remember to download programs supporting AMT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ABBYY Finereader Pro with AMT files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AMT file still does not use the ABBYY Finereader Pro program, it means no 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. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the AMT file with the ABBYY Finereader Pro program.
Step 3. Update ABBYY Finereader Pro to the latest version
If, however, after binding ABBYY Finereader Pro with ABBYY Finereader 5.0 Pro there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the ABBYY website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AMT file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The AMT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the AMT 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 AMT file. However, remember that not every infected AMT 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 AMT 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 AMT files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, 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 file AMT 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the AMT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the AMT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AMT to close. 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.
