How to open RFMOD file?
An often recurring problem with RFactor 2 Mod is that RFMOD is not associated with the correct program file. This is manifested by the fact that RFMOD 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 RFMOD 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 rFactor
The first step is to check if the computer has the rFactor program installed. This can be achieved by typing rFactor 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 RFMOD files.
Programs to open RFMOD file
Remember to download programs supporting RFMOD files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of rFactor with RFMOD files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RFMOD file still does not use the rFactor 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. Using the "Change" button we can set the program to handle this type. The program should be visible in the window, otherwise it should be selected manually using the "Browse" button and the program installation directory should be indicated. However, it is important to check the "Always use the selected program ..." box, this will allow you to permanently associate the RFMOD file with the rFactor application.
Step 3. Update rFactor to the latest version
If, however, after binding rFactor with RFactor 2 Mod 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 Image Space website and install the latest version.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RFMOD file
The problem may also be with the file itself if the above steps don't work. File problems can be divided into the following:
The affected file may be 0 KB or smaller than expected. This suggests truncating the RFMOD file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The most common cause here is computer viruses. 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. However, it is important to scan the entire system, not only the file RFMOD or the program directory. Sometimes virus-infected RFMOD 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 RFMOD 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. The repair method must be adapted to the type of file and damage. Some programs offer the ability to automatically repair RFMOD file corruption. The easiest way is to restore the file from a backup, if there is one, or contact N/A
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted RFMOD 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. It is best to move RFMOD to a different directory.
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. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. However, some background programs may block the RFMOD file while scanning. If nothing helps, please reset the device.
