The PDOM file is supported on 3 operating systems. Depending on your operating system, you may need different software to handle the PDOM files. Below is a summary of the number of programs that support and open the PDOM file on each system platform.
What is PDOM file?
The file with the extension PDOM is the Misc Files file type. Additionally, the Misc Files category contains 6033 of other files. Eclipse Index Database Format appears on 3 operating systems as a functional file. Although it can be found with greater or lesser success on any operating system, it will only be useful on Linux, Mac OS, Windows. The Eclipse application is recommended to open the file. It was released by The Eclipse Foundation. This file type can also be opened by 2 other programs.
How to open PDOM file?
An often recurring problem with Eclipse Index Database Format is that PDOM is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that PDOM 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 PDOM 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 Eclipse
The first step is to check if the computer has the Eclipse program installed. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name Eclipse in it. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PDOM with Eclipse. Below is a list of programs that support the file PDOM.
Programs to open PDOM file
Remember to download programs supporting PDOM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Eclipse with PDOM files
However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PDOM file to open in the Eclipse application, but you can set it manually. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. If there is no software on the list, simply select "Browse" and manually select the directory where the application is installed. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PDOM file with the Eclipse program.
Step 3. Update Eclipse to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Eclipse program, it is possible that Eclipse Index Database Format requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the The Eclipse Foundation website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PDOM file
If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. The most common file problems are:
The PDOM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. Usually this applies to PDOM files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Alternatively, you can use the scanners available online. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PDOM or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected PDOM file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the PDOM 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair PDOM file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted file PDOM 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. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. If possible, you can try to move the PDOM file to another location.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PDOM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the PDOM file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
