Tips to open FSM file
Can't open the FSM file? You are not the only one. Thousands of users face similar problems every day. Below you will find tips on how to open FSM files as well as a list of programs that support FSM files.

The FSM file is supported on 2 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the FSM files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the FSM file on each system platform.
What is FSM file?
The FSM file has been categorized as Audio Files. Audio Files consists of 771 similar files. Farandole Composer WaveSample Format is supported by 2 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Mac OS, Windows. This file type can also be opened by 2 other programs. You can use Awave Studio, MODPlug Player in case CocoModX cannot be used.
How to open FSM file?
The main problem with Farandole Composer WaveSample Format is that the FSM file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that FSM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FSM 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 CocoModX
The first step is to check if the computer has the CocoModX program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name CocoModX in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support FSM files.
Programs to open FSM file
Remember to download programs supporting FSM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of CocoModX with FSM files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FSM file to open in the CocoModX 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FSM file with the CocoModX program.
Step 3. Update CocoModX to the latest version
If, despite the association of the CocoModX program with the Farandole Composer WaveSample Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FSM file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The FSM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the FSM file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FSM file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover FSM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FSM 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular FSM file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FSM 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 FSM to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FSM file again. 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.
