If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the H5M file still does not use the Heroes of Might and Magic V program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu.

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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the H5M file with the Heroes of Might and Magic V program.

The fault may also lie with the Heroes of Might and Magic V program, it is possible that Heroes Of Might And Magic V Game Data Format requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the Ubisoft Entertainment S.A. website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the H5M 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. Usually this applies to H5M files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the H5M file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected H5M files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of H5M 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.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular H5M file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted H5M 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. It is best to move H5M to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the H5M file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
