How to open QHT file?

An often recurring problem with Apple QuickTime HTML is that QHT is not associated with the correct program file. Thus, when you open QHT, the program selection wizard or some other program starts. How to solve such a problem?

The first thing you should do is just "doubleclick" on the QHT 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 QuickTime Player

In this case, you should first verify that the QuickTime Player application is installed on the computer. The easiest method is to use the system search engine by entering the program name QuickTime Player in it.

Step 2. Create association of QuickTime Player with QHT files

However, it may happen that the application itself does not cause the QHT file to open in the QuickTime Player 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 select the desired program. 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 QHT file with the QuickTime Player program.

Step 3. Update QuickTime Player to the latest version

If, however, after binding QuickTime Player with Apple QuickTime HTML there were still problems, you should update the program to the latest version. Some applications allow you to update from the program level, and for others you need to download the installer from the Apple, Inc. page and install.

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

If the above steps do not help, you can assume that the file itself is not correct. File problems can be divided into the following:

The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the QHT file contents when downloading or copying. The file should be downloaded again, making sure that the process has finished correctly.
The computer may have fallen victim to a computer virus or hacker. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the QHT file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected QHT files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of QHT file may not always be supported by the latest software version. 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 this. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular QHT file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use Apple, Inc. help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted QHT files cannot be played on other computers than the one on which they were encrypted, they must be decrypted before using on another device.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. 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 QHT file to another location.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Closing other programs should help. Sometimes it is necessary to wait a while before referencing the QHT file again. However, some background programs may block the QHT file while scanning. If the problem persists, restart the machine.
