How to open ATOMS file?

An often recurring problem with Ribbons Atoms is that ATOMS is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ATOMS, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ATOMS 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 Ribbons

The first step is to check if the computer has the Ribbons program installed. To do this, enter the name Ribbons into the 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 ATOMS files.

Programs to open ATOMS file

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

Step 2. Create association of Ribbons with ATOMS files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the ATOMS file still does not use the Ribbons program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 ATOMS file with the Ribbons application.

Step 3. Update Ribbons to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Ribbons program, it is possible that Ribbons Atoms requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the M.Carson website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ATOMS 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:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ATOMS file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ATOMS or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected ATOMS 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 ATOMS files changes over time. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged ATOMS files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting M.Carson, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted ATOMS 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ATOMS to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the ATOMS file again. However, some background programs may block the ATOMS file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
