How to open NMO file?

The main problem with Virtools Behavioral Objects is that the NMO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file NMO to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This problem can be easily remedied.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the NMO 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 3DVIA Virtools

The first step is to check if the computer has the 3DVIA Virtools program installed. This can be achieved by typing 3DVIA Virtools into the operating 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 NMO files.

Programs to open NMO file

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

Step 2. Create association of 3DVIA Virtools with NMO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the NMO file to open in the 3DVIA Virtools application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the 3DVIA Virtools application as the default for handling the NMO file.

Step 3. Update 3DVIA Virtools to the latest version

If, despite the association of the 3DVIA Virtools program with the Virtools Behavioral Objects 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 Dassault Syst?mes S.A. page and install.

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

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the NMO file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file NMO or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover NMO files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of NMO 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 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 NMO file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact Dassault Systèmes S.A.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted NMO 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 operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move NMO 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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file NMO to close. However, some background programs may block the NMO file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
