How to open AVASTTHEME file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the AVASTTHEME 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 Avast Antivirus

Programs to open AVASTTHEME file

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

Step 2. Create association of Avast Antivirus with AVASTTHEME files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the AVASTTHEME file still does not use the Avast Antivirus program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the AVASTTHEME file with the Avast Antivirus application.

Step 3. Update Avast Antivirus to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Avast Antivirus program with the Avast Theme Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the AVAST Software a.s. website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The AVASTTHEME file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the AVASTTHEME file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our AVASTTHEME file. Sometimes virus-infected AVASTTHEME files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of AVASTTHEME 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.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular AVASTTHEME file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted AVASTTHEME 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 AVASTTHEME file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file AVASTTHEME to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the AVASTTHEME file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
