How to open FEM file?
The main problem with FEFLOW FEM Problem is that the FEM file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open FEM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FEM 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 FEFLOW
In this case, you should first verify that the FEFLOW application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing FEFLOW into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FEM with FEFLOW. Below is a list of programs that support the file FEM.
Programs to open FEM file
Remember to download programs supporting FEM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FEFLOW with FEM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FEM file still does not use the FEFLOW 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. 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. 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 FEM file with the FEFLOW program.
Step 3. Update FEFLOW to the latest version
If, however, after binding FEFLOW with FEFLOW FEM Problem there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the DHI-WASY GMBH website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FEM 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 is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FEM file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FEM or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected FEM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the FEM 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FEM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting DHI-WASY GMBH, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file FEM 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the FEM file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FEM to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
