How to open DMB file?
The most common problem when using BYOND Game Executable is that a specific DMB is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open DMB, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DMB 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 BYOND
The first step is to check if the computer has the BYOND program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name BYOND 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 DMB files.
Programs to open DMB file
Remember to download programs supporting DMB files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of BYOND with DMB files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the DMB file to open in the BYOND application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 DMB file with the BYOND application.
Step 3. Update BYOND to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the BYOND program, it is possible that BYOND Game Executable requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the BYOND website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DMB file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The DMB file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to DMB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DMB or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover DMB files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DMB 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DMB file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting BYOND, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted DMB 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the DMB file to another location.
This problem usually affects 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 DMB to close. However, some background programs may block the DMB file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
