How to open PM1 file?

The most common problem when using Pegasus Mail Secondary Address Book Index is that a specific PM1 is not associated with the program. This causes the file PM1 to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PM1 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 Pegasus Mail

The first step is to check if the computer has the Pegasus Mail program installed. This can be achieved by typing Pegasus Mail into the operating system search engine. In the absence of an appropriate program, its installation in the vast majority of cases will fix the problem. Below is a list of programs that support the file PM1.

Programs to open PM1 file

Remember to download programs supporting PM1 files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.

Step 2. Create association of Pegasus Mail with PM1 files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the PM1 file to open in the Pegasus Mail application, but you can set it manually. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 PM1 file with the Pegasus Mail application.

Step 3. Update Pegasus Mail to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the Pegasus Mail program, it is possible that Pegasus Mail Secondary Address Book Index requires a newer version of the program. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the David Harris page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PM1 file

Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. The most common file problems are:

The PM1 file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the PM1 file contents when downloading or copying. Downloading the file again should fix the problem.
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. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our PM1 file. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PM1 files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the PM1 files changes over time. 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. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PM1 file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use David Harris help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PM1 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.
Some operating systems do not allow file operations in certain locations, eg in system directories or directly on the system drive. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. It is best to move PM1 to a different directory.
This problem usually affects 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. Antivirus programs or a backup being made may lock the file for a while without the user's knowledge. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
