What is OMO file?

The file in the OMO format belongs to the Developer Files category. The creator of this file is OMake. Additionally, the Developer Files category contains 1205 of other files. OMake Object Format is most often found on 3 operating systems. These systems consist of Linux, Mac OS, Windows, although it may occasionally be found on another system, it will be non-functional. There are also 2 alternative programs to handle the OMO file.

How to open OMO file?

The main problem with OMake Object Format is that the OMO file is incorrectly associated with programs. This is manifested by the fact that OMO files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OMO 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 OMake

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that OMake is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name OMake in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below is a list of programs that support the file OMO.

Programs to open OMO file

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

Step 2. Create association of OMake with OMO files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the OMO file to open in the OMake 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 displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the OMO file with the OMake application.

Step 3. Update OMake to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the OMake program, it is possible that OMake Object Format requires a newer version of the program.

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

The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. The most common file problems are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to OMO files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
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 OMO file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected OMO files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of OMO file may not always be supported by the latest software version. On their websites, developers usually offer free solutions to such problems, e.g. in the form of a conversion program or an older version of the program.
The file may be corrupted in a number of ways. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OMO file corruption.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OMO files can be used by the device on which they were encrypted, on any other device it is required to have the appropriate cryptographic key and decrypt the file before its recovery.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move OMO 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. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file OMO to close. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the OMO file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
