How to open FMPUR file?

The most common problem when using FileMaker Pro Runtime Solution Format is that a specific FMPUR is not associated with the program. This causes the file FMPUR to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FMPUR 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 FileMaker Pro

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that FileMaker Pro is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name FileMaker Pro into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FMPUR files.

Programs to open FMPUR file

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

Step 2. Create association of FileMaker Pro with FMPUR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FMPUR file to open in the FileMaker Pro application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. 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 FMPUR file with the FileMaker Pro program.

Step 3. Update FileMaker Pro to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the FileMaker Pro program, it is possible that FileMaker Pro Runtime Solution Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the FileMaker, Inc. page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FMPUR 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. Usually this applies to FMPUR files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FMPUR file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FMPUR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FMPUR file. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing 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. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FMPUR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FMPUR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FMPUR to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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 FMPUR 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.
