How to open QEM file?
The most common problem when using ExpensAble Report is that a specific QEM is not associated with the program. This is manifested by the fact that QEM files open in unusual applications or do not have an assigned program. How to solve such a problem?
The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the QEM 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 ExpensAble Office
In this case, you should first verify that the ExpensAble Office application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name ExpensAble Office in it. If it is not, installation may solve the problem, as most applications create file associations during installation. Below you will find a list of applications that support QEM files.
Programs to open QEM file
Remember to download programs supporting QEM files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of ExpensAble Office with QEM files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the QEM file still does not use the ExpensAble Office program, it means no association. It is most convenient to call the context menu with the right mouse button and select Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. 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 QEM file with the ExpensAble Office program.
Step 3. Update ExpensAble Office to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the ExpensAble Office program, it is possible that ExpensAble Report requires a newer version of the program.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 ExpensAble page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the QEM file
Of course, it may happen that despite the above steps, the file still does not work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The QEM file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the QEM file. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. A quick virus scan using an up-to-date antivirus program should clear up any doubts. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the QEM file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected QEM files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
This can happen especially when the program is dynamically developed and the structure of the QEM 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. Depending on the type of file, it is necessary to repair it accordingly. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular QEM file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use ExpensAble help.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted QEM 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. While there is usually no problem reading such a file, it may not be possible to save it. If possible, you can try to move the QEM file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. In this case, the QEM file is blocked by the first application to open it. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the QEM file again. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the QEM file for a certain period of time. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
