How to open PMB file?

The most common problem when using Polar Uplink Tool Bitmap is that a specific PMB is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that PMB files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. This can be quickly resolved by following the instructions below.

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PMB 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 Adobe Photoshop

An often overlooked issue is to make sure that Adobe Photoshop is installed on the computer. This can be achieved by typing Adobe Photoshop into the operating system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file PMB with Adobe Photoshop. Below is a list of programs that support the file PMB.

Programs to open PMB file

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

Step 2. Create association of Adobe Photoshop with PMB files

If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the PMB file still does not use the Adobe Photoshop program, it means no association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. Information about the file and the program that the file is associated with are available here. Changes can be made using the "Change" button. It may happen that in the next window there will be no appropriate program - however, this can be corrected with the "Browse" option where you should manually indicate the program location. Checking the "Always use the selected program ..." box will permanently associate the PMB file with the Adobe Photoshop program.

Step 3. Update Adobe Photoshop to the latest version

If, however, after binding Adobe Photoshop with Polar Uplink Tool Bitmap there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the Adobe Systems Incorporated website and install the latest version.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. This could be due to the file itself, the cleanest issues are:

Very often, the file may be size 0 or incomplete. Usually this applies to PMB files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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 PMB file that we want to open. As a result of the scan, sometimes it is not possible to recover PMB files, which are deleted if there is a backup of this file, then after restoring it, it must also be scanned.
Older version of PMB file may not always be supported by the latest software version. These problems are known and are often very easy to fix using the software developers's website.
There can be many reasons for the failure. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PMB file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use N/A help.
The program indicates that the file is encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted PMB files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
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 PMB to a different directory.
This problem only occurs with more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file PMB 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.
