How to open DDM file?
The most common problem when using Alpha Five Table Objects is that a specific DDM is not associated with the program. This causes the file DDM to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DDM 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 Alpha Five
In this case, you should first verify that the Alpha Five application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Alpha Five in it. 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 DDM files.
Programs to open DDM file
Remember to download programs supporting DDM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Alpha Five with DDM files
If, despite the installed application, the DDM file does not start in the Alpha Five application, you must create a file 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Alpha Five application as the default for handling the DDM file.
Step 3. Update Alpha Five to the latest version
If, however, after binding Alpha Five with Alpha Five Table Objects 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 Alpha Software, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DDM file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the DDM file contents when downloading or copying. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the DDM file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected DDM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of DDM 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.
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 option of recovering data from damaged DDM files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Alpha Software, Inc.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted DDM 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move DDM to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file DDM to close. 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.
