What is BMB file?
The BMB file has been categorized as Misc Files. The author of this format is Parametric Technology Corporation. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. Pro/ENGINEER Temporary is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others.
How to open BMB file?
The most common problem when using Pro/ENGINEER Temporary is that a specific BMB is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open BMB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the BMB 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 Pro/Engineer
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Pro/Engineer is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Pro/Engineer in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file BMB with Pro/Engineer. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open BMB files.
Programs to open BMB file
Remember to download programs supporting BMB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Pro/Engineer with BMB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the BMB file to open in the Pro/Engineer application, but you can set it manually. 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 set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the BMB file with the Pro/Engineer program.
Step 3. Update Pro/Engineer to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Pro/Engineer program, it is possible that Pro/ENGINEER Temporary requires a newer version of the program.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the BMB file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The BMB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the BMB file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file BMB or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected BMB file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the BMB file. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair BMB file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted BMB 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the BMB file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
