How to open OR8 file?
The most common problem when using Rational Rose Oracle8 Database Model Report is that a specific OR8 is not associated with the program. Thus, when you open OR8, 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 OR8 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 Rational Rose Developer for Java
The first step is to check if the computer has the Rational Rose Developer for Java program installed. To do this, enter the name Rational Rose Developer for Java into the system search engine. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open OR8 files.
Programs to open OR8 file
Remember to download programs supporting OR8 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Rational Rose Developer for Java with OR8 files
If, despite the installed application, the OR8 file does not start in the Rational Rose Developer for Java application, you must create a file association. 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. The "always use the selected program ..." field will set the Rational Rose Developer for Java application as the default for handling the OR8 file.
Step 3. Update Rational Rose Developer for Java to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Rational Rose Developer for Java program, it is possible that Rational Rose Oracle8 Database Model Report requires a newer version of the program. In this case, use the IBM website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OR8 file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the OR8 file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. A virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should fix the problem. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the OR8 file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected OR8 files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the OR8 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. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair OR8 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use IBM help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted file OR8 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. 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 OR8 file to another location.
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. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the OR8 file while scanning. If this does not work either, restart the device.
