What is EMSG file?
The file with the extension EMSG is the Misc Files file type. It was designed by KJB Software development. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. SendSafe E-message is supported by 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. The main program that supports this format is SendSafe. This was created by KJB Software development.
How to open EMSG file?
An often recurring problem with SendSafe E-message is that EMSG is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file EMSG 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 EMSG 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 SendSafe
The first step is to check if the computer has the SendSafe program installed. To do this, enter the name SendSafe 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 EMSG with SendSafe. Below is a list of programs that support the file EMSG.
Programs to open EMSG file
Remember to download programs supporting EMSG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of SendSafe with EMSG files
If, despite the installed application, the EMSG file does not start in the SendSafe application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the EMSG file with the SendSafe program.
Step 3. Update SendSafe to the latest version
If, despite the association of the SendSafe program with the SendSafe E-message 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 KJB Software development page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the EMSG file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the EMSG file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the EMSG file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected EMSG file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of EMSG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular EMSG file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting KJB Software development, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted EMSG files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the EMSG file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file EMSG to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the EMSG file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
