What is CMR file?
The file in the CMR format belongs to the Document Files category. It was designed by Foundation CMA. Additionally, the Document Files category contains 574 of other files. Coach Saved Results is supported by 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is Coach. This was created by Foundation CMA.
How to open CMR file?
The most common problem when using Coach Saved Results is that a specific CMR is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that CMR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CMR 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 Coach
In this case, you should first verify that the Coach application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Coach into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open CMR files.
Programs to open CMR file
Remember to download programs supporting CMR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Coach with CMR files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the CMR file still does not use the Coach program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 CMR file with the Coach application.
Step 3. Update Coach to the latest version
If, however, after binding Coach with Coach Saved Results there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Foundation CMA page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CMR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CMR 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the CMR file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover CMR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of CMR file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair CMR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Foundation CMA, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CMR 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 CMR 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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the CMR file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the CMR file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
