How to open IMOTION file?

The most common problem when using IClone Motion Capture is that a specific IMOTION is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that IMOTION files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the IMOTION 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 iClone

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that iClone is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name iClone in it. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file IMOTION.

Programs to open IMOTION file

Remember to download programs supporting IMOTION files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of iClone with IMOTION files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the IMOTION file still does not use the iClone program, it means no association. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the iClone application as the default for handling the IMOTION file.

Step 3. Update iClone to the latest version

If, despite the association of the iClone program with the IClone Motion Capture file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the Reallusion Inc. website or update the program from the application.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:

The IMOTION file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the IMOTION file contents when downloading or copying. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file IMOTION or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover IMOTION files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the IMOTION file. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged IMOTION files. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Reallusion Inc.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file IMOTION except for the special designation, works normally, but only on the device where it was encrypted, before transferring it to another machine, decryption is required.
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 IMOTION to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the IMOTION file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the IMOTION file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
