How to open DMM file?
The most common problem when using DropMind Mind Map Format is that a specific DMM is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that DMM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the DMM 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 DropMind
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that DropMind is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name DropMind into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file DMM with DropMind. Below is a list of programs that support the file DMM.
Programs to open DMM file
Remember to download programs supporting DMM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of DropMind with DMM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the DMM file still does not use the DropMind program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 DMM file with the DropMind application.
Step 3. Update DropMind to the latest version
If, however, after binding DropMind with DropMind Mind Map Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Seavus DOOEL website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DMM 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 DMM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to DMM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our DMM file. However, remember that not every infected DMM 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 DMM 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular DMM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Seavus
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DMM except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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. It is best to move DMM to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the DMM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the DMM file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
