What is FMR file?

The file in the FMR format belongs to the Document Files category. The creator of this file is Rainer Goebel. In addition to this file, the Document Files category includes 574 related files. BrainVoyager QX Project 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 BrainVoyager QX. This was created by Rainer Goebel.

How to open FMR file?

The most common problem when using BrainVoyager QX Project is that a specific FMR is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that FMR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FMR 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 BrainVoyager QX

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that BrainVoyager QX is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name BrainVoyager QX in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FMR with BrainVoyager QX. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FMR files.

Programs to open FMR file

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

Step 2. Create association of BrainVoyager QX with FMR files

If, despite the installed application, the FMR file does not start in the BrainVoyager QX 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. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FMR file with the BrainVoyager QX program.

Step 3. Update BrainVoyager QX to the latest version

If, despite the association of the BrainVoyager QX program with the BrainVoyager QX Project file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Rainer Goebel website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FMR 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 FMR file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FMR file. Sometimes virus-infected FMR 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 FMR files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FMR files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Rainer Goebel help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FMR files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. It is best to move FMR to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. 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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the FMR file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
