How to open ATLA file?

The main problem with Artlantis Archive Format is that the ATLA file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that ATLA files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.

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

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Artlantis is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Artlantis 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 ATLA files.

Programs to open ATLA file

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

Step 2. Create association of Artlantis with ATLA files

If, despite the installed application, the ATLA file does not start in the Artlantis application, you must create a file 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 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 Artlantis application as the default for handling the ATLA file.

Step 3. Update Artlantis to the latest version

If, however, after binding Artlantis with Artlantis Archive Format 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 ABVENT website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to ATLA files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the ATLA file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ATLA 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 ATLA 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.
There can be many reasons for this. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ATLA files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ATLA 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. 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 ATLA file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the ATLA 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 ATLA to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the ATLA file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
