How to open CPTM file?
The most common problem when using Adobe Captivate Theme is that a specific CPTM is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that CPTM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the CPTM 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 Adobe Captivate
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Adobe Captivate is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Adobe Captivate 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 CPTM files.
Programs to open CPTM file
Remember to download programs supporting CPTM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe Captivate with CPTM files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the CPTM file to open in the Adobe Captivate 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the CPTM file with the Adobe Captivate application.
Step 3. Update Adobe Captivate to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Adobe Captivate program with the Adobe Captivate Theme file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Adobe Systems Incorporated page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the CPTM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the CPTM 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 virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our CPTM file. Sometimes virus-infected CPTM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the CPTM 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 CPTM files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Adobe Systems Incorporated help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted CPTM 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move CPTM to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the CPTM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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 nothing helps, please reset the device.
