Step 2. Create association of TED5 with BM1 files

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BM1 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 BM1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to BM1 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our BM1 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover BM1 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of BM1 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular BM1 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted BM1 files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the BM1 file to another location will fix the problem.
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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the BM1 file again. However, some background programs may block the BM1 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
