How to open FSO file?

The main problem with Adobe Flash Media Server Format System Object is that the FSO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that FSO 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 FSO 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 Adobe Media Server

The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe Media Server program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe Media Server in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file FSO.

Programs to open FSO file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe Media Server with FSO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FSO file to open in the Adobe Media Server 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. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Adobe Media Server application as the default for handling the FSO file.

Step 3. Update Adobe Media Server to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Adobe Media Server program with the Adobe Flash Media Server Format System Object 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 Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The FSO file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the FSO 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file FSO or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected FSO file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FSO file. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FSO files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Adobe Systems Incorporated
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FSO 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 FSO file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the FSO file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the FSO file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
