How to open ARGO file?

The main problem with ArgoUML Project is that the ARGO file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open ARGO, 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 ARGO 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 Argo UML

In this case, you should first verify that the Argo UML application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Argo UML into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support ARGO files.

Programs to open ARGO file

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

Step 2. Create association of Argo UML with ARGO files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ARGO file still does not use the Argo UML program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the ARGO file with the Argo UML application.

Step 3. Update Argo UML to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Argo UML program, it is possible that ArgoUML Project requires a newer version of the program.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 Tigris.org page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ARGO 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ARGO file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ARGO file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ARGO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of ARGO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ARGO file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Tigris.org
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ARGO files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. Copying the ARGO file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the ARGO file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ARGO to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
