How to open FPMO file?

The main problem with FPS Creator Map Overlay Format is that the FPMO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file FPMO to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FPMO 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 FPS Creator

The first step is to check if the computer has the FPS Creator program installed. This can be achieved by typing FPS Creator into the operating 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 FPMO files.

Programs to open FPMO file

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

Step 2. Create association of FPS Creator with FPMO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FPMO file to open in the FPS Creator application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the FPS Creator application as the default for handling the FPMO file.

Step 3. Update FPS Creator to the latest version

If, however, after binding FPS Creator with FPS Creator Map Overlay Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the The GameCreators website and install the latest version.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The FPMO file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FPMO file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FPMO file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected FPMO 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 FPMO files changes over time. 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 the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FPMO file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting The Game Creators, 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 FPMO 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the FPMO file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. 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.
