How to open PME file?
The main problem with Pegasus Mail Filter Rule Formats is that the PME file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file PME to open by system applications not designed for this purpose, or to display a message that there is no associated program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the PME 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. 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 PME files.
Programs to open PME file
Remember to download programs supporting PME files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Pegasus Mail with PME files
If, despite the installed application, the PME file does not start in the Pegasus Mail 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. 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. 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. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the PME 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The fault may also lie with the Pegasus Mail program, it is possible that Pegasus Mail Filter Rule Formats requires a newer version of the program. This can be done using the application (if it provides such options) or from the David Harris website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the PME 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 affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. Usually this applies to PME files downloaded from the Internet in case the download did not finish properly. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file PME or the program directory. However, remember that not every infected PME 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 PME 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.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular PME file corruption. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting David Harris, 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 PME 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. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. It is best to move PME to a different directory.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. In this case, the PME file is blocked by the first application to open it. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the PME file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the PME file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
