How to open FF0 file?

The most common problem when using RISC OS TIFF Bitmap Image is that a specific FF0 is not associated with the program. This causes the file FF0 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FF0 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 Ovation Pro

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Ovation Pro is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name Ovation Pro into the system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file FF0.

Programs to open FF0 file

Remember to download programs supporting FF0 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Ovation Pro with FF0 files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FF0 file still does not use the Ovation Pro program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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 set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FF0 file with the Ovation Pro application.

Step 3. Update Ovation Pro to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Ovation Pro program with the RISC OS TIFF Bitmap Image file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the David Pilling website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FF0 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to FF0 files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FF0 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FF0 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of FF0 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.
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 FF0 file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting RISCOS Ltd., 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 file FF0 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move FF0 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the FF0 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FF0 to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
