Programs to open BKMK file
Remember to download programs supporting BKMK files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Yummy FTP with BKMK files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the BKMK file still does not use the Yummy FTP 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the BKMK file with the Yummy FTP application.
Step 3. Update Yummy FTP to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Yummy FTP program with the Yummy FTP Bookmark Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Yummy Software website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BKMK 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BKMK file. 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 BKMK file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BKMK 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 BKMK 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged BKMK files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Yummy Software
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file BKMK except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. It is best to move BKMK to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the BKMK file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BKMK file again. However, some background programs may block the BKMK file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
