What is GRT file?
The GRT file has been categorized as Data Files. The creator of this file is Golden Software. Data Files consists of 1326 similar files. Grapher Template is most often found on 1 operating systems. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Windows. The main program that supports this format is Grapher. This was created by Golden Software, Inc..
How to open GRT file?
The most common problem when using Grapher Template is that a specific GRT is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open GRT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GRT 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 Grapher
In this case, you should first verify that the Grapher application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Grapher into the operating system search engine. 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 GRT files.
Programs to open GRT file
Remember to download programs supporting GRT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Grapher with GRT files
If, despite the installed application, the GRT file does not start in the Grapher application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. 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 GRT file with the Grapher application.
Step 3. Update Grapher to the latest version
If, however, after binding Grapher with Grapher Template there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Golden Software, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GRT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't 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 GRT file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our GRT file. However, remember that not every infected GRT file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the GRT files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair GRT file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Golden Software
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted GRT 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move GRT to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the GRT file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the GRT file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
