How to open RHF file?
The main problem with Adobe RoboHelp Project Format is that the RHF file is incorrectly associated with programs. This causes the file RHF 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 RHF 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 Adobe RoboHelp
The first step is to check if the computer has the Adobe RoboHelp program installed. This can be achieved by typing Adobe RoboHelp 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 RHF files.
Programs to open RHF file
Remember to download programs supporting RHF files only from verified and safe sources. We suggest using the websites of software developers.
Step 2. Create association of Adobe RoboHelp with RHF files
If the application is or has been freshly installed, but the RHF file still does not use the Adobe RoboHelp program, it means no association. The association can be created using the drop-down list available by right-clicking on the file and selecting Properties. The displayed window will contain information about the program that supports this type of file. Using the "Change" button we can select the desired program. 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 RHF file with the Adobe RoboHelp application.
Step 3. Update Adobe RoboHelp to the latest version
The fault may also lie with the Adobe RoboHelp program, it is possible that Adobe RoboHelp Project Format requires a newer version of the program.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 Adobe Systems Incorporated page and install.
Step 4. Check for the following problems with the RHF 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 RHF file may be unusually small compared to the original file. This suggests truncating the RHF file contents when downloading or copying. The only repair option is to download the file again.
The operating system may be infected with a computer virus. Perform a virus scan using available and up-to-date anti-virus software. Some antivirus vendors also provide free online scanners. For the best results, we will scan the entire operating system, not just our RHF file. However, remember that not every infected RHF file can be recovered, so it is important to take care of regular backups.
Older version of RHF 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 the failure. Repairing is very dependent on the file type. Some programs offer the option of recovering data from damaged RHF files. The easiest way to restore the file is from a backup or by contacting , but this one can be expensive. Not all damage can be reversed.
The program can also signal the fact of encryption. The encrypted RHF 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.
Some of the system directories are excluded from modification. These directories are write-protected to them and it's very hard to fix this problem. Copying the RHF file to another location will fix the problem.
This problem usually affects more complex files. Some file types can only be opened in one program at a time. Running programs (including those in the background) should be verified. If the error persists after closing other programs, wait for a while. Some anti-virus or backup software may occupy the RHF file for a certain period of time. If this does not work either, restart the device.
