The KMC file is supported on 1 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the KMC files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the KMC file on each system platform.
What is KMC file?
The file in the KMC format belongs to the 3D Image Files category. It was designed by Kinemac. 3D Image Files consists of 622 similar files. Kinemac Animation Format is most often found on 1 operating systems. These systems consist of Mac OS, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. The main program that supports this format is Kinemac. This was created by Kinemac.
How to open KMC file?
The main problem with Kinemac Animation Format is that the KMC file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file KMC to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the KMC 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 Kinemac
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Kinemac is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Kinemac into the operating system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open KMC files.
Programs to open KMC file
Remember to download programs supporting KMC files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Kinemac with KMC files
If, despite the installed application, the KMC file does not start in the Kinemac application, you must create a file association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select 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. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the KMC file with the Kinemac program.
Step 3. Update Kinemac to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Kinemac program, it is possible that Kinemac Animation Format requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Kinemac page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the KMC 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 KMC file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the KMC file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the KMC file that we want to open. However, remember that not every infected KMC 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 KMC 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair KMC file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Kinemac, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted KMC 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 of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the KMC file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file KMC to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
