How to open FSAT file?

An often recurring problem with Autodesk Inventor Data Format is that FSAT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open FSAT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FSAT 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 Autodesk Inventor

The first step is to check if the computer has the Autodesk Inventor program installed. To do this, enter the name Autodesk Inventor into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file FSAT with Autodesk Inventor. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open FSAT files.

Programs to open FSAT file

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

Step 2. Create association of Autodesk Inventor with FSAT files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the FSAT file still does not use the Autodesk Inventor program, it means no 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FSAT file with the Autodesk Inventor application.

Step 3. Update Autodesk Inventor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Autodesk Inventor program, it is possible that Autodesk Inventor Data Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Autodesk, Inc. website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The FSAT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to FSAT files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FSAT file. However, remember that not every infected FSAT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of FSAT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FSAT 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 indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FSAT 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. If possible, you can try to move the FSAT file to another location.
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. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FSAT to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FSAT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
