How to open AQT file?

An often recurring problem with AQTitle Subtitles Format is that AQT is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file AQT to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AQT 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 VLC media player

In this case, you should first verify that the VLC media player application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing VLC media player 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 AQT files.

Programs to open AQT file

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

Step 2. Create association of VLC media player with AQT files

If, despite the installed application, the AQT file does not start in the VLC media player application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 VLC media player application as the default for handling the AQT file.

Step 3. Update VLC media player to the latest version

If, despite the association of the VLC media player program with the AQTitle Subtitles Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the VideoLAN Project Team website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the AQT 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the AQT 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the AQT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected AQT 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 AQT 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair AQT file corruption. 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 AQT 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. 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 AQT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
