How to open DMOD file?

This causes the file DMOD 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 DMOD 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.

Programs to open DMOD file
Remember to download programs supporting DMOD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Dink Smallwood with DMOD files
If, despite the installed application, the DMOD file does not start in the Dink Smallwood application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 DMOD file with the Dink Smallwood application.
Step 3. Update Dink Smallwood to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Dink Smallwood program, it is possible that Dink Smallwood Add-on Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Robinson Technologies website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the DMOD file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This suggests truncating the DMOD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file DMOD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected DMOD files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the DMOD file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
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 DMOD files. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file DMOD 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 DMOD to a different directory.
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 DMOD to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the DMOD file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
