The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GOOMOD 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 Apple Archive Utility

In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open GOOMOD files.
Programs to open GOOMOD file
Remember to download programs supporting GOOMOD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Apple Archive Utility with GOOMOD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the GOOMOD file still does not use the Apple Archive Utility program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the GOOMOD file with the Apple Archive Utility application.
Step 3. Update Apple Archive Utility to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Apple Archive Utility program with the World Of Goo Add-on 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 GOOMOD file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The GOOMOD file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the GOOMOD file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 GOOMOD file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover GOOMOD files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of GOOMOD file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GOOMOD file corruption.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file GOOMOD 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 GOOMOD to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the GOOMOD file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GOOMOD to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
