How to open MOTOR file?

Step 1. Install Adobe After Effects

The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe After Effects program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Adobe After Effects in it. 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 MOTOR files.

Step 2. Create association of Adobe After Effects with MOTOR files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the MOTOR file to open in the Adobe After Effects application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. 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. 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 MOTOR file with the Adobe After Effects program.

Step 3. Update Adobe After Effects to the latest version

If, however, after binding Adobe After Effects with Adobe Mocha For Adobe After Effects Motor there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Adobe Systems Incorporated page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the MOTOR 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the MOTOR file contents when downloading or copying. 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. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the MOTOR file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover MOTOR files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of MOTOR 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 MOTOR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting Adobe Systems Incorporated, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted MOTOR 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. Copying the MOTOR file to another location will fix the problem.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file MOTOR to close. However, some background programs may block the MOTOR file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
