How to open H2SONG file?

The main problem with Hydrogen Drum Notes is that the H2SONG file is incorrectly associated with programs. Thus, when you open H2SONG, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the H2SONG 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 Hydrogen

The first step is to check if the computer has the Hydrogen program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Hydrogen in it. 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 H2SONG files.

Programs to open H2SONG file

Remember to download programs supporting H2SONG files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Hydrogen with H2SONG files

If, despite the installed application, the H2SONG file does not start in the Hydrogen application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the H2SONG file with the Hydrogen program.

Step 3. Update Hydrogen to the latest version

If, however, after binding Hydrogen with Hydrogen Drum Notes there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the Hydrogen Team website or update the program from the application.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the H2SONG file

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the H2SONG file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the H2SONG file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover H2SONG files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of H2SONG file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged H2SONG files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Hydrogen Team, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted H2SONG 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the H2SONG file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file H2SONG to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
