The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ID31 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 Helium Music Manager

In this case, you should first verify that the Helium Music Manager application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Helium Music Manager in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below you will find a list of applications that support ID31 files.

Step 2. Create association of Helium Music Manager with ID31 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the ID31 file to open in the Helium Music Manager 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. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Helium Music Manager application as the default for handling the ID31 file.

Step 3. Update Helium Music Manager to the latest version

If, despite the association of the Helium Music Manager program with the Helium Music Manager Id3 Tags Export 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 Imploded Software website and install the latest version.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ID31 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the ID31 file. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file ID31 or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover ID31 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 ID31 files changes over time. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular ID31 file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Intermedia Software
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted ID31 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move ID31 to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the ID31 file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
