How to open OSR file?
The most common problem when using Osu! Replay Format is that a specific OSR is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that OSR files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This problem can be easily remedied.
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the OSR 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 osu!
An often overlooked issue is to make sure that osu! is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name osu! in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file OSR with osu!. Below is a list of programs that support the file OSR.
Programs to open OSR file
Remember to download programs supporting OSR files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of osu! with OSR files
If, despite the installed application, the OSR file does not start in the osu! 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. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the OSR file with the osu! program.
Step 3. Update osu! to the latest version
If, however, after binding osu! with Osu! Replay Format there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. In this case, use the peppy website or update the program from the application.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the OSR file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the OSR file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file OSR or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected OSR file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
A typical compatibility error - the program does not support the older version of the OSR 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 OSR file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting peppy, but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted OSR files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the OSR file to another location will fix the problem.
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 it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the OSR file again. However, some background programs may block the OSR file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
