FORTH file extension
The FORTH file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the FORTH files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the FORTH file on each system platform.
What is FORTH file?
The FORTH file has been categorized as Developer Files. Developer Files consists of 1205 similar files. Forth Source Code is most often found on 1 operating systems. The file will work on Windows systems, unfortunately not on others. It is recommended to use Sublime Text to handle this file. This is a program created by Sublime HQ Pty Ltd.
How to open FORTH file?
An often recurring problem with Forth Source Code is that FORTH is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file FORTH 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 FORTH 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 Sublime Text
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Sublime Text is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Sublime Text 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 FORTH with Sublime Text. Below you will find a list of applications that support FORTH files.
Programs to open FORTH file
Remember to download programs supporting FORTH files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Sublime Text with FORTH files
If, despite the installed application, the FORTH file does not start in the Sublime Text 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. 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. 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 FORTH file with the Sublime Text program.
Step 3. Update Sublime Text to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Sublime Text program, it is possible that Forth Source Code requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Sublime HQ Pty Ltd website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FORTH file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FORTH file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FORTH file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected FORTH files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FORTH file. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FORTH file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted FORTH 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. Copying the FORTH 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 FORTH to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FORTH file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
