How to open FTI file?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the FTI 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 FamiTracker
In this case, you should first verify that the FamiTracker application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name FamiTracker in it.

Programs to open FTI file
Remember to download programs supporting FTI files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of FamiTracker with FTI files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the FTI file to open in the FamiTracker application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the FTI file with the FamiTracker application.
Step 3. Update FamiTracker to the latest version
If, despite the association of the FamiTracker program with the FamiTracker Instrument Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the jsr page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the FTI file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The FTI file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to FTI files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the FTI file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected FTI 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 FTI file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair FTI 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.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted FTI 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the FTI 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. 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.
