How to open FST file?
An often recurring problem with FL Studio Format is that FST is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that FST files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FST 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 FL Studio
In this case, you should first verify that the FL Studio application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name FL Studio 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 FST.
Programs to open FST file
Remember to download programs supporting FST files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FL Studio with FST files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FST file to open in the FL Studio application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the FST file with the FL Studio program.
Step 3. Update FL Studio to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the FL Studio program, it is possible that FL Studio Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Image Line Software BVBA website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FST file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the FST file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our FST file. Sometimes virus-infected FST files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the FST 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged FST files. You can restore the file from a backup or use Image Line Software BVBA help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file FST except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move FST to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file FST to close. However, some background programs may block the FST file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
