What is COM_ file?

The file with the extension COM_ is the Developer Files file type. In addition to this file, the Developer Files category includes 1205 related files. Emu8086 Assembly Source Code Format appears on 1 operating systems as a functional file. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others.

How to open COM_ file?

The most common problem when using Emu8086 Assembly Source Code Format is that a specific COM_ is not associated with the program. This causes the file COM_ to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the COM_ 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 8086 Microprocessor Emulator

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that 8086 Microprocessor Emulator is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name 8086 Microprocessor Emulator into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support COM_ files.

Programs to open COM_ file

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

Step 2. Create association of 8086 Microprocessor Emulator with COM_ files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the COM_ file to open in the 8086 Microprocessor Emulator 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the 8086 Microprocessor Emulator application as the default for handling the COM_ file.

Step 3. Update 8086 Microprocessor Emulator to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the 8086 Microprocessor Emulator program, it is possible that Emu8086 Assembly Source Code Format requires a newer version of the program.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not 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 COM_ 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our COM_ file. However, remember that not every infected COM_ file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the COM_ files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged COM_ files.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted COM_ files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the COM_ file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file COM_ to close. However, some background programs may block the COM_ file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
