How to open GTK-BOOKMARKS file?
The main problem with Ubuntu Nautilus Bookmarks Format is that the GTK-BOOKMARKS file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that GTK-BOOKMARKS files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the GTK-BOOKMARKS 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 Ubuntu
In this case, you should first verify that the Ubuntu application is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Ubuntu into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support GTK-BOOKMARKS files.
Programs to open GTK-BOOKMARKS file
Remember to download programs supporting GTK-BOOKMARKS files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Ubuntu with GTK-BOOKMARKS files
If, despite the installed application, the GTK-BOOKMARKS file does not start in the Ubuntu 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 GTK-BOOKMARKS file with the Ubuntu application.
Step 3. Update Ubuntu to the latest version
If, however, after binding Ubuntu with Ubuntu Nautilus Bookmarks Format 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 Canonical Ltd. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the GTK-BOOKMARKS file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to GTK-BOOKMARKS files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the GTK-BOOKMARKS file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected GTK-BOOKMARKS file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of GTK-BOOKMARKS file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular GTK-BOOKMARKS 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.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted GTK-BOOKMARKS 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 GTK-BOOKMARKS to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. In this case, the GTK-BOOKMARKS file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file GTK-BOOKMARKS to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the GTK-BOOKMARKS file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
