How to open ASSTRM file?

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

Programs to open ASSTRM file

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

Step 2. Create association of Splinter Cell Blacklist with ASSTRM files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ASSTRM file still does not use the Splinter Cell Blacklist 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Splinter Cell Blacklist application as the default for handling the ASSTRM file.

Step 3. Update Splinter Cell Blacklist to the latest version

If, however, after binding Splinter Cell Blacklist with Splinter Cell Blacklist Game Data there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Ubisoft Entertainment S.A. website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ASSTRM file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the ASSTRM file contents when downloading or copying. 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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ASSTRM file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ASSTRM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ASSTRM file. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ASSTRM file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Ubisoft Entertainment S.A. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ASSTRM 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the ASSTRM file to another location.
This problem only occurs with 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ASSTRM 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.
