How to open KDT file?
An often recurring problem with Medbasin Evaporation Data is that KDT is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that KDT files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the KDT 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 Medbasin
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Medbasin is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Medbasin into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support KDT files.
Programs to open KDT file
Remember to download programs supporting KDT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Medbasin with KDT files
If, despite the installed application, the KDT file does not start in the Medbasin application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The window will show, among other things, the type of the file and the information by which the program is used to launch the file. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the KDT file with the Medbasin program.
Step 3. Update Medbasin to the latest version
If, despite the association of the Medbasin program with the Medbasin Evaporation Data 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 Laboratory of Reclamation Works & Water Resources Management page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KDT 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:
Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the KDT file. 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. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the KDT file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover KDT files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of KDT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular KDT file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Laboratory of Reclamation Works & Water Resources Management, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KDT 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. It is best to move KDT to a different directory.
This problem usually affects more complex files. 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. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the KDT file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
