How to open HT3 file?
The most common problem when using HTML Document Format is that a specific HT3 is not associated with the program. This causes the file HT3 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HT3 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 Microsoft Internet Explorer
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Internet Explorer program installed. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Internet Explorer into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file HT3 with Microsoft Internet Explorer. Below you will find a list of applications that support HT3 files.
Programs to open HT3 file
Remember to download programs supporting HT3 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Internet Explorer with HT3 files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the HT3 file to open in the Microsoft Internet Explorer application, but you can set it manually. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Microsoft Internet Explorer application as the default for handling the HT3 file.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Internet Explorer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Internet Explorer program with the HTML Document Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Microsoft Corporation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HT3 file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The HT3 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the HT3 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. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file HT3 or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected HT3 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HT3 files changes over time. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HT3 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HT3 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the HT3 file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the HT3 file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the HT3 file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the HT3 file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
