The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OBM 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 EIAS
In this case, you should first verify that the EIAS application is installed on the computer. To do this, enter the name EIAS 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 OBM files.
Programs to open OBM file
Remember to download programs supporting OBM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of EIAS with OBM files
If, despite the installed application, the OBM file does not start in the EIAS 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. 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 OBM file with the EIAS application.
Step 3. Update EIAS to the latest version
If, despite the association of the EIAS program with the EIAS Camera Motion Export Format file, the file still does not open, check the program version and possibly update it to the newest version. In this case, use the EIAS3D website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OBM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The OBM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OBM file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file OBM or the program directory. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover OBM files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the OBM 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 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 OBM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted OBM 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the OBM file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the OBM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the OBM file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OBM file for a certain period of time. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
