How to open ONT file?
An often recurring problem with TheWord Bible Text Module is that ONT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open ONT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the ONT 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 theWord
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that theWord is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name theWord in it. 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 ONT files.
Programs to open ONT file
Remember to download programs supporting ONT files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of theWord with ONT files
If, despite the installed application, the ONT file does not start in the theWord application, you must create a file association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting 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 ONT file with the theWord application.
Step 3. Update theWord to the latest version
If, however, after binding theWord with TheWord Bible Text Module 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 Costas Stergiou page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the ONT file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:
The ONT file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the ONT 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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our ONT file. Sometimes virus-infected ONT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the ONT file. 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair ONT file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact theWord Bible Software
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file ONT 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.
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. If possible, you can try to move the ONT file to another location.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file ONT to close. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If this does not work either, restart the device.
