How to open HTT file?
An often recurring problem with Hypertext Template Format is that HTT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open HTT, 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 HTT 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 Windows
The first step is to check if the computer has the Microsoft Windows program installed. This can be achieved by typing Microsoft Windows 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 HTT with Microsoft Windows. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open HTT files.
Programs to open HTT file
Remember to download programs supporting HTT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Microsoft Windows with HTT files
If, despite the installed application, the HTT file does not start in the Microsoft Windows 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. 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 HTT file with the Microsoft Windows application.
Step 3. Update Microsoft Windows to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Microsoft Windows program with the Hypertext Template Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Microsoft Corporation website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HTT file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:
The HTT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the HTT file. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our HTT file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover HTT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HTT 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. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged HTT files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Microsoft
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HTT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. If possible, you can try to move the HTT file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file HTT to close. However, some background programs may block the HTT file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
