How to open LATM file?
The most common problem when using Low Overhead Audio Transport Multiplex Format is that a specific LATM is not associated with the program. This causes the file LATM to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the LATM 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 VLC media player
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that VLC media player is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name VLC media player into the system search engine. 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 LATM files.
Programs to open LATM file
Remember to download programs supporting LATM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of VLC media player with LATM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the LATM file still does not use the VLC media player program, it means no 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. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the LATM file with the VLC media player application.
Step 3. Update VLC media player to the latest version
If, however, after binding VLC media player with Low Overhead Audio Transport Multiplex Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the VideoLAN Project Team website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the LATM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The LATM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the LATM 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. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our LATM file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover LATM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of LATM file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair LATM file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file LATM 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.
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 LATM to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with 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. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file LATM to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
