How to open HYM file?
The most common problem when using Hymarc Scandata Scanner 3D Image Binary is that a specific HYM is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open HYM, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the HYM 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 Rapidform Explorer
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Rapidform Explorer is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Rapidform Explorer in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open HYM files.
Programs to open HYM file
Remember to download programs supporting HYM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Rapidform Explorer with HYM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the HYM file still does not use the Rapidform Explorer program, it means no 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 set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the HYM file with the Rapidform Explorer program.
Step 3. Update Rapidform Explorer to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Rapidform Explorer program with the Hymarc Scandata Scanner 3D Image Binary file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Rapidform, Inc. page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the HYM file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the HYM file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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 HYM or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected HYM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the HYM files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular HYM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting N/A, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted HYM files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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. It is best to move HYM to a different directory.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the HYM file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
