How to open RFF file?

An often recurring problem with Roproc Format is that RFF is not associated with the correct program file. This causes the file RFF 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 RFF 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 NotePad++ text editor

The first step is to check if the computer has the NotePad++ text editor program installed. To do this, enter the name NotePad++ text editor into the system search engine. If we do not have this program, it is worth installing it, as it will help you automatically associate the file RFF with NotePad++ text editor. Later in this article you will find a list of programs that can open RFF files.

Step 2. Create association of NotePad++ text editor with RFF files

If, despite the installed application, the RFF file does not start in the NotePad++ text editor application, you must create a file association. This option is available from the level of Properties of a specific file available in the context menu. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. 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 RFF file with the NotePad++ text editor program.

Step 3. Update NotePad++ text editor to the latest version

The fault may also lie with the NotePad++ text editor program, it is possible that Roproc Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Notepad++ Team page and install.

Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RFF 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 RFF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This is most often caused by a problem while downloading the RFF file. 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. If this is not possible, you can use the online scanner. The scan should cover the entire computer, not only the RFF file that we want to open. Sometimes virus-infected RFF files cannot be recovered, so make a backup in advance.
Older version of RFF file may not always be supported by the latest software version. Help should be sought from the software developer, as they usually recommend using free file converters or installing an older version of the program.
There can be many reasons for the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Sometimes the program itself has options to repair the most popular RFF file corruption. You can restore the file from a backup or use help.
When reading, a message appears that the file was encrypted or corrupted. The encrypted RFF 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.
The operating system protects files in some locations (e.g. the root of the system partition) against unauthorized access. The problem is only writing to the file, not reading it. Copying the RFF file to another location will fix the problem.
This can happen on a file that does not support multiple access. You may find that another program you are using is preventing you from working with the file. Just close unnecessary programs. Sometimes you have to wait for the session to the file RFF 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.
